unidentical geminiloneliness grazes. i have no mood to talk to the Other Side. her voice has a haunting familiarity and it terrifies me. especially when it starts to blend with my own.
nor do i have the mood to talk to F. he's busy anyways. not too busy for me but talking to him right now would sink me further into blissful oblivion where the world consists of just me and him.
as much as i like to believe that to be true, the world and its occupants just tug and tug persistently. people walking in threes fours twos tens twentys. there is too much longing for the world. for something to define who i really am, not through the eyes of someone poisoned badly with love.
adulthood is fast chug-a-chugging towards me and i still cannot feel myself with the clarity of how i used to last time. perhaps it was all those lies forcing me to face who i am without anaesthetic. i have not even regained that easy confidence and innocence of how everything i do would be right no matter what. those days where i scratched away, cheerfully somber, childish cliche poems of teen age, scarecrows and frightened little girls.
all i feel now is numbness and occasional floods of overwhelmingly painful love i had for F. with that comes the burden of weighing the soul and the heart.
