Finally got to paint both of my grandparents for their birthdays.
I have been a different person with different people. I sometimes become who they want me to be, or Iāll retreat when I feel like they expect too much.Ā Iām the strong, silent type who talks a lot, and falls in love too quick, and breaks hearts too often, and is always there when Iām needed, and never answers the phone when it rings, and has a heart of gold, and a heart of coal, and is too selfish to ever consider anyone else, and will give away the very last of his thingsā¦Ā
at least thats whats they say, and they would all be telling the truth.Ā
Iām looking forward to discovering who Iām going to becomeĀ with you,
who will you turn me into?
Iāve been cursed with a vivid memory. I remember everything. Mistakes Iāve made, people who hurt me, that girl in the 4th grade who told me we would get married at 28, all the criticism Iāve gotten, the bad things my friends say about people when theyāre not around, the text message I accidentally read when I looked over your shoulder last night, and everything in-between. A vivid memory is unforgiving. The world can be a hard place to navigate when youāre constantly being reminded about all of the things that didnāt go right, or trying to smile at all of your critics. Sometimes I just want to shut down and close myself off, and take a break from pretending. Acting like I donāt remember what happened yesterday, or last year, or when I was 8 becomes exhausting.Ā
She was a half lit cigarette
Ā Ā left smoking under the bed.
You had a chance to put her out,
Ā but you went to sleep instead.
As something slowly burned
Ā deep inside her core
You escaped into a dream
Ā as she set fire to the floor.Ā
LoveAndWater: Hi how are you? www.meetmehere.com
NikRich1986: Re: Hey, Iām good actually. Been so long since we spoke. I thought you may have deleted me from your life all together, I guess itās kind of hard to delete an email address from the internet. It's the piece of technology that gives all relationships their last bit of hope, lol. I saw a wrecked white Jeep Wrangler yesterday and thought about you, us. Hoping it wasnt you inside. Iām guessing youāre ok. How have you been?
LoveAndWater: Do you like music? Click here! Ā www.mp3fr.com
NikRich1986: Re: Iām always looking for something new to listen to. Iāll check them out. Music has been my only company these past few months. I say, listening to music is like always having a friend around. The thing I like about music is that it always takes you back to where you were the first time you heard it. Like a time machine. But time machines have drawbacks, some parts of the past are best not re-lived. Howās your job? Do you run the place yet?
LoveAndWater: When is the last time you went camping? Check out these deals! www.kayakthroughyourtears.com
NikRich1986: Re: Havenāt been since I was a kid with my dad. I remember we talked about going camping a few times, but it never really worked out did it? Do you still hate nature? lol. I can find us a cool spot in Mississippi and we can cross at least one thing off the list of the many things that we never got to do together. I can finally show you how to fish! October is probably the best month. Are you free then?
LoveAndWater: I just won a new iPod by filling out this survey! www.areyoudeadinside.com
LoveAndWater: Hey, I think my email has been spamming you. Sorry about that! Iām going to delete it so donāt bother messaging again. Thx.
āGive a girl the right shoes and she can conquer the worldā =)
NikRich1986: Re: Wow⦠I guess we havenāt spoken in so long that eventually some part of our subconscious would reach out to each other. Its funny that you can think about somebody hard enough for so long and the universe finds ways to manifest them for you. Its almost like my heart hacked into your computer. Its pretty romantic if you think about it, thatās some real soul mate shit right there. Anyway, call me sometime, or text. I prefer you text. Just to let me know youāre doing alright. 301-5320 Same number itās always been.

All that looking and staring and talking and asking and texting and sweating and calling and meeting and seeing and eating and drinking and repeating and trying and lying and promising and touching and hugging and kissing and licking and sweating and undressing and resisting and submitting and letting go and giving in and moaning and cursing and screaming and cumming and going and pulling out and pulling away and questioning and going with it and rethinking and getting dressed and regret and being quiet and accepting and ignoring and cursing and screaming and crying and lying will have you wondering wtf just happened?
I'm always here for the people I hurt.
I want what I want as quickly as possible to make sure it's something I still want once I get it. If not, gives me enough time to want something else.
This is what it sounds like...
