THE OLD ME IS BACK!!!!
11/17/06
I’m tired of fighting so hard for something I know will fail miserably in the end.
So why do I keep fighting for it?
It’s the same argument just different circumstances every time
So why can’t I figure out the solution
I have to give all of my info
And yet she none
But I am the nagging mother
I’m not sure how long I can last this time
Always thrown in the corner until needed for amusement
Why do I stay?
What is it that keeps me strapped down?
Why can’t I leave like I did before?
When I left before I felt as if the life had been sucked out of me
I feel that way still
She is here because she loves me or so she says
But it’s a possessive love
Controlling and life threatening
Every instinct I have says I deserve better
And I know I do
Every friend relative could be lover past lovers even acquaintances
Say its true
I can’t stand the thought of it.
I hate myself for leaving the first time
For staying this time
For loving anyone at all
Love has only brought me hurt
Pain, torment
I hate love
I hate hate
I hate feeling
Life itself seems to mock me
Everything I do or say comes back to haunt me
My life is a mistake.
I am reminded of it every time I make a mistake
I make things harder on myself as punishment
I bring pain and suffering upon myself
I am ashamed to be gay
I ashamed to be in love I ashamed to be who I am
But I am who I am
I am open and release myself
I thought that’s how I was
I used to be that way
I am no longer
Presently I am naked torn beaten bruised abandoned
But it is I who have abandoned myself
I can’t find who I used to be
I am lost and alone
I made myself alone
I am not alone at all
But have built a wall
And won’t give the key to anyone
I feel that I have lost it
Or maybe I already gave it away and now can’t get it back
I want the wall to come down
I know not when I built it.
I think it’s the one I built as a small child.
I broke through it I think
But quickly returned
It served as a hiding place.
The next time I knocked it down
Soon enough I had to rebuild it
I think this last time I built it inside out
I locked the good out and the bad in.
It has changed me for the worst.
When I look back I think
How I was a fool
And how dumb I am again
It will never change I know this
So why am I drawn to her.
Why can’t I escape these feelings?
I am consumed with hate and anger and pain
And so inflict more hate and anger and pain.
I wish I understood why.
I wish I could get away from the things I fear
Even fear itself
The things the people that hurt me.
Myself even
The whole world
It’s easy to start over
I’ve done it six times since birth
Possibly more
To start over I must give up what means most to me
Before it was easy
I was made to start over
I know it’s not so bad
So why am I stalling
I’m afraid of what’s to come
I afraid ill be hated I am always
I find new people that care
New friends
But they like all leave
And I am alone again
But this isn’t always true
I have ones that are there for me now
So why do I feel the need to start over and be alone again?
I can’t get my thoughts together
I can’t figure it out
I can’t see through anything
My skills have dwindled away
I can’t even hold conversation
I think this is a step
But where do I go
Do I go?
Do I stay?
When I ran back into to refuge my hiding place
I understood where I belonged
Knew who to love
Who to hate
I hated no one
But loved everyone
I hate everyone and love no one
Where do I fit in?
What am I good at?
What am I bad at?
What crowd do I belong to?
How will I know?
Who will I tell when I know?
What will it be like?
I am stuck
I found who I was and now I have lost her
It’s the same thing over and over
I am going in circles
And know not why
I missed something
There is a lesson
Where
What
Why can’t I see it?
What am I to learn?
I can’t see it
I keep passing it missing it
Maybe not coming up to it
Maybe I haven’t missed it at all
Maybe I have to keep going
Instead of
Veering or turning around or
Or stopping for bad direction
Maybe its been here inside me
All along and I was looking else where
What if its not there at all and im looking for nothing
How will I know when will I know
What am I looking for at all?
I am confused
I have said I have no one
This isn’t true
I have everyone just not
The one
I had the one
But she is lost and I can’t find her
Yes this is what im looking for
I found her I had her
I had everything
I had love
I had friends I had family
I had her I love her but she is gone
I have friends and I have family
I have no goals
I have no future
I had goals
I think if I pursue those goals I once had I will find my new ones
I may in fact find that my new goals are simply my old goals
I just lost sight of them
Any goal I have ever had seems unreachable to me now
A family
A degree
Patients
Saving lives
Teaching
Loving
Caring
They are the same
So why are they hard to see happen
Why are they out of my reach?
Why can’t I imagine them now?
I am cold
I once loved the world
Once loved the people
Once cared for everyone
Everything
The animals
The plants
What people
The world has no people they are monsters
Villains
Killers
Invaders
Spies
Liars
Even children are evil
Of course they are tainted by their beloved heroes their parents
But even so they are evil
So why don’t I want to make the world safer
Better
Brighter
Full of life
Not death
Care for all not just the rich
Not just the poor
Not just the black
Not just the
White or Hispanic or Asian
Not just the young but the elders too
And everyone in between
What is wrong with me?
I figured it out
So why is it still hard?
It’s not hard I make it hard
I should end it
I don’t have to put up with it
I allowed her to build a wall around me
Now I can’t get out
She is the key
They only way out is to leave and never look back
It may be hard but I must do it
I will never be accepted or happy while im thrown around and not loved
While I am told to do something then when I do it, it gets thrown back in my face
Its nothing but a double standard and I hate everything about it
I hate her
I hate the way I feel about her
I hate everything I have done for her because it has only hurt me
It will only ever hurt because I will never be enough
She is enough for me but I never get her
She is always too busy giving herself to other people I will never have her to me
She will always lust after someone else
She will always put her friends before me
Never me before anyone
I won’t allow her to destroy me
I thought I was destroyed
But I now know this is only the beginning of my life
I am who I am
I am who I was
I love myself
I love my friends and my family and I will no longer allow someone to dictate my life
I will no longer be hurt
I will no longer be left
I will no longer be used for fun
For amusement
For pleasure
I will be myself and I will only do what I want when I want
I will not be second best anymore
I will be someone’s first choice
I deserve that
I deserve to be loved and treated like a queen
The way I love and treat her like a queen
And I will
I will peruse my goals
My dreams
I will help people
I will further my knowledge of the world
The body
Mankind
Science
I will explore my options
And I will love who I am
