I see now through the wisdom of others eyes
that what I thought I was saying was not what I was saying
There are certain things I try to hide from myself
not because they are terrible but because I am impatient
and want to be done with them
My last post which I intended to be a diatribe
on my overall disappointment with the vapidness of the women I am sleeping with
I have found them empty
What I thought I was doing
was not what I was doing
when I thought others were empty
it was I who was empty
I spent three years of my life
in a miserable relationship
with someone I loved deeply
It ended and I am not over it
not as much as I would like
I am not sure why
I saw her the other day
we met for coffee
a bad idea on my part
she was a stranger
I didn't recognize her voice or her touch
while I enjoyed the feel of her breast against my chest
when she cried into my shoulder
it was absent the peace I had always felt
when touching her
When I used to hold her in my arms my demons couldn't touch me
the entire world felt far away, I felt at peace
So now I miss that peace
and even she cant give it to me any longer
guess I will have to find it for myself in myself
I know I am not ready for
nor am truly wanting a serious relationship
but fucking
for fucking's sake alone
is not doing anything for me
I don't feel better after sleeping
with someone I care nothing for
I feel worse
that what I thought I was saying was not what I was saying

over time
life pries
our eyes open
slowly
to the realities
but
we
can still
refuse to see
