It's rare when I feel the need to be naked emotionally...or so I
tell myself. Most of my notes could be intepreted* as a silent, nay
ear-shateringly loud cry for help...they are not. I'm not being cryptic,
you do not have to read between the lines to decipher. I think I'm
lonely. *Weeps* It sucks to admit that but I think I am. Not for erotic
love, God no! Lonely for the love that loveth genuinely and understands earnestly.
Friends have become strangers, bossom buddies have become
pillars of salt. Memories, they haunt like the ghosts of christmas past
and it's disheartening. I've woken up lonely, because in my dreams
lately I'm running and falling with no one to catch me. I'm aching and
screaming with no one to hold me. I'm reaching out albeit silently but
there's no straw to clasp hold of for dear life. Deserted. I feel
deserted.
I don't pretend to be happy, I have ineffable joy! I have
learned to make peace with the problems that seem hellbent on destroying
me. After all, fire purifies gold, it doesn't decimate it. I however
crave to lean on someone; fighting alone is akin to death in a cold icy
dungeon. Alas, there are no warriors surrounding me. Nobody to carry me,
wounded I'm left alone to bleed! I'm bloody and in need of bandaging,
pierced to the sides like Jesus yes I'm hurt. And like him I'm dying to
save the world...but I'm yielding to eternal silence because nobody WILL
rescue me.
Is this a clarion call? no. Is this a battle cry? NO. What
is it? Quite frankly sijui. I want to break into ashes surrounded who
understand the rebirth of a phoenix. But I'm all alone, feeling like I'm
fighting a loosing battle. This is not me asking for pity, far from it.
This is not me asking for sympathy, I detest it. I crave for empathy,
that is the rare jewel my soul seeketh.
I want someone to say, "You can
be Clark or Bruce, the world will still be here tomorrow, what can I do
for you?" That. That's what I want. I don't want love, unless it's
unrequited, I don't want fun, unless it's unadulterated. I want empathy,
I want to feel safe, I want to know I won't go down or drown. I want to
crush and burn and be allowed to learn. May be you'll hear my cry and
step up, before I have a glacier for a heart and become a hermit. I'm at
the periphery, and once I cross that line, I'm not coming back. Goodbye
human heart, welcome to the abyss.
