Widening the gap....


It feels like you're trying to stop a train with your bare hands...I mean imagine jumping on then tracks at 59th street trying to command the A to slow down....or just flat-out stop. You're either going to get run over or dragged along under it, but either way you're gonna die trying...

That's a bit dramatic, but I feel like I'm fighting a losing battle. When you love someone so much, and they've been a part of your life for so long, but all you feel is distance growing sprinkled with a close moment here and there what do you do? Try to fill your hands with water...I mean fill them and hold it. You can't...you're just left with wet hands...evidence that it was there but it's still gone. To be fair I am going through some communication pet peeves...the Internet is starting to rub me the wrong way, as a whole...( I say this as I'm typing a damn blog...shut up) but I miss REAL communication, but understand that it's all about convenience now...so a text/ bbm/email is sometimes more realistic than a phone call...but since when have I been a realist? I'd rather be inconvenienced by a phone call than feel like I'm losing someone that I wouldn't be me without...true when I lived in NY it was a lot easier to grab some free moments to take a walk and talk, to hang out and whoever's house and watch tv...but does that mean thats it's not possible to keep that closeness just cause we're no longer in close proximity? You cant have close friends(?) unless you guys live a commute from each other? That's such a sad thought...actually brings tears to my eyes, but thats not saying much since I've been overly emotional as a whole for over a month now...but I digress.

My question...is what do I do? How do I stop this? Can I reverse it? Lose the metaphoric "gap" quickly widening between us...or just remember what was, smile at the memories and accept is as life....? Ugh that last one dosent even sound halfway right, I'm the QUEEN of letting people walk away that brought nothing to my life...and if this was just anyone, this post wouldn't even be happening....but to be honest I can't imagine no him in my life...can't even wrap my mind around the fact that "we" might be a permanently past tense thing.

Not to be too much of an idealist but this...funk I've been in has me reexamining life and realizing before you know it it's gone...people...opportunities...it's a scary thought. When the pace and "convenience" of communication slows down long enough for you to step back and take a look, what are you really left with? Shell of something that was once such a...HUGE part of your life....your heart...

I'm depressing myself...but how many ways can you say I miss you? I miss us? Before you just sound repetitive? If I lose him I've lost a part of me, that simple.

Too Much or Not At All..

Crazy...but that in a nutshell I'm noticing is how I approach life. Be it love, money, success, etc etc...

If I want it/love it/need it...I've got tunnel vision...I go harder than hard. But just like that...When I feel all my efforts are for naught...You(it) can cease to exist to me ...just...thatquick!

Now don't get me wrong...I'm sure it sounds like bitchery on a smallish scale...It's not a conscious effort (I don't think). I just...stop caring...and when I stop caring...I can't (in most cases) reverse it.

I don't by any means think this is healthy or normal...and in certain cases the ping-pongery (que?) of it kinda makes me uneasy. My emotions are so shredded I'm pretty sure I'd make a therapist rich. But black ppl don't go to shrinks...(do we?)

I mean let me clarify...on something I take as seriously as the "L" word...It's not like...I love you today, and I hate you tomorrow...That would just make me bi-polar and probably a bit out of touch...i.e nuts.

But as someone who's a tad jaded in the love department...I can love you to death and still wish u the best but not want anything to do with u period.

A friend said to me today "I just want you to be good" ( as in OK), and my response was "me too".

Cuz I wish more than anything else that i was "good" or that it was just that simple. But really what ever is?

In a perfect world....(why did typing that just make me smirk?)
I used to be able to say "in a perfect world...blah blah blah..." But oddly nothing came to mind just now. (that's crazy)

But I feel like I'm straying from the point here. I feel like i have so much built up inside of me right now...anger, confusion, sadness, (ugh i sound so geigh!) And I've analyzed myself enough to know that it's from caring too much...abt ppl that can't/won't/don't know how to return the favor.

I have a HUGE heart ( a gift and a curse)...But certain ppl will always have a place in it...But when I feel like I've been played/wronged/taken for granted/or just flat out hurt...I'll love u forever, but you'll disappear to me. I don't hide, or change my number...i don't do anything blatant. I just limit our contact til there just is NO contact...and then just smile to myself when I get the out of the blue text "Why did we stop chillin, I miss u".

Can't be healthy...and i don't know when or how that became my way of handeling things. I don't even know what the remedy for this approach would be. Makes me come off real robotic and cold in a sense.

I can give u all I've got, open my chest up and lay my heart out there for u...Be the best friend in the world to u, be the chick you can't shake, cant forget, will always want...But the SECOND...I feel like you've done me dirty/wrong in any capacity...The second you take all that for granted...or assume I'm weak...

It's like the armor comes out...UNCONCIOUSLY...just like that I harden...(to that person, place or thing)

Now when I say this scares the crap out of me...smh.


Because I know myself well enough to know this "defense mechanism" won't last forever...When you harden like that and don't let hurt out...it builds, and builds, and builds....til u just SNAP!

See...I KNOW I'm gonna snap...just don't know, when...where, or what will cause it...

Just hoping when i do I'll be able to pick the pieces back up and put myself back together...

I almost feel like I need to wear a warning label for those closest to me...I love/care/give...TOO much...or not at ALL...

Your choice...

Deuces.

Game so tight! (a.k.a young boy chronicles vol. 2)

OK...for my young boy chronicles part 2.

My OTHER lil homegirl Kiana (18). Just recently went to prom. Her lil prom date was so excited that she agreed to go with him...He A. asked her what kind of car she wanted to ride to prom in...and rented it.

B. Also rented a hotel room at the Marriott (not cheap). When they opened up the door, there were rose petals all over the floor leading into the room....

He then walked over to the curtains, opened them up to a view of downtown ATL...(nicely done young man)

He took her hand and told her "I don't have much...but will you please be my girlfriend?".....

*throws laptop and walks away*.....

@&%*^&%&@*%@(#%&)@!&&^!$^!P(^!$#^**$#^)!*)#^!!!!!!


OK..I'm back.

Like WTF...seriously?!

Smh...I need some of my male bloggers to shed some light on this for me...is it that ya'll REALLY just don't try as hard as you get older? Are these lil boy's just on a mission to show ya'll up...?

Does the creativity lessen with age?

Amazing!

The end.

WTF!! (a.k.a Young boy chronicles vol. 1)

Ok so like...I'm mad as hell...

My LITTLE homegirl (shes 16) gets a gift today from her boyfriend (he's 18). This lil dude gave her a watch...(thats not the good part)..He took the battery out before he gave it to her...

He had stopped it at exactly 8:29..When she asked him why...He told her 8:29 is when they first started going out (august 29th for u slow ones). So he gave her a watch with the time stopped at 8:29 so that whenever she looked at it she'd think of him...

OK ..WHAT THHHHHHEEEE HELL Grown Men?! Step ya game up like ASAP!!!

This lil dude is either A. Creative as HELL
B. Reading from the ULTIMATE handbook of Pimpin
C. Got one hell of an older brother , cousin, friend etc...that put him on...
SOMETHING!

I really think young dudes still have to WORK hard for theirs...Older dudes kinda...quit tyring as much...(not ALL) don't bite my head off...I'm just saying...

I'm a HOPELESS romantic...but i TRULY feel as men get older they don't feel like they have to try as hard the longer we're with them...I could be wrong...and I'm not generalizing...Smh.

I'm happy for my babygirl, cuz ya'll KNOW she's gassed right about now...lol


At 18 lil dude knows a lil creativity can go a loooooooooooooooooooong way.

Try it.

The end!
