What I Really Need
(That’s All I’ve Got To Say – Movie The Last Unicorn)
My Love
Hon,
I can’t stand trying to function in a unit crammed full of boxes with stuff that maybe I do or don’t need – and having no space to put it anywhere, nor ease of flow and movement.
My Love,
I look forward to time with you.
Suffering
“At some point, it all just becomes too much, and one has to find a way to make things better.”
Isolate
“I do feel alone…
Like an – “
(I Can Dream About You – Dan Hartman)
After The Car Accident
“I had to shove aside the fears associated with suddenly not being able to grip or lift things properly.”
Be At Peace,
My Love.
At Least I First Made It To 50’s
A Man’s Fragile Ego
“I remember many times when I thought that I had found safe space to bloom and expand, new love began to wither with every step of my progress.”
(Earth Rain – Ethereal Haven)
For You See,
I am crazy and wildly in love with you.
Beyond paths of any societal reason.
My Love,
For you, my chest swells, letting me know that my quivering and apparently now-shy-after-all-of-my-declared-and-demonstrated-bravery heart has permission to grow the love that it holds for you beyond time, distance, and any material realities if you would but grant it your blessings’ permissions for me to have, to hold, and to grow with you.
Briefly Waking
“For the first time in several weeks, when I lie here in bed, I do not feel as physically wrecked as I have been…
Of course, now I have to attempt to dig up plants and try to lift up many, many, many full pots to transport them…”
Hon,
My heart yearns for you.
Even through our difficulties.
How I’ve Been Feeling
Hee Hee Hee
That Silly Staircase
Cussing
“I think that some glimmers of my normalcy are starting to return to where, at times, I would like to back it down a bit in my private dialogue.”
My One,
What do you need from me?
How can I best support you?
(Loved By The Sun – Tangerine Dream, Movie Legend)
My Dearest,
I’m just not interested in the world’s negativity.
My greatest desire is having you in my life with me.
However, wherever it needs to happen and can be healthy.
Easy-Peasy (But Mean It!)
(First Light – Ravid)
Our First Date
Feeling Relief
How We Could Be
My Love,
You know that you drive me crazy, right?
Hon,
I know that I am hard to catch.
I don’t mean to make it hard for you.
I am just blippin’ between tasks, trying to simulate being functional.
Baby,
It’s kind of funny to realize how shy we get around each other.
And Now…
“I have 15 minutes to do too many things without tearing my tissues further.
It’s amazing how we can take for granted ease of movement when we naturally have tissue connectivity integrity.
I miss those days…
Correction: 10 minutes.”
Self Projecting
“I am still hurt and my needed bits are not reconnected, so when pushed by timeliness and necessary labor, it’s my anger that brings strength to me by filling in the gaps and spaces with liquid rage.
And then when I can take a break for a moment, somewhere inside in the background, my subconscious is whimpering and crying hysterically while my ego screams ‘YAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH’ triumphantly for having achieved and beaten back disability.
In the late evenings and early mornings, I am not ok…
But I keep trying to be.”
(Title play with words)
Seething Resentment
“I used to have occasional cranky periods, but they would come and go like temporary storms looking forward to the sunlight, again.
Now, because I have to keep physically and mentally powering through everything while suporessing emotion with little rest and down time for recuperation, I carry a molten fire cloud around me emitting angry, vexed, and determined frustration
D9 NOT make eye contact with me during these times, because my eyes will shoot out laser beams and burn friendliness to cinders as I grit my teeth – more upset by the invasion of my privacy intrusion.
Yeah, I dare you.
(Honestly, I do try to be nice while growling and struggling – but still, don’t tempt me)
Until it’s time to perform healing therapies, where I must access the other, finer qualities of my personality for others’ benefit.
And then it’s right back into the pit fires of Hell for me.”
Almost 4 Years Later
‘I’ve never heard of a car accident’s impact causing such injuries as I have experienced.”
Back To God
In having to sort through, separate, and send onward so much of this and that as quickly as possible, she emboldened herself and left the “gifted” prayer rug at the masjid door to the women’s section.
For though it had been brilliantly colored beautifully, she needed to have its taint cleansed by others’ innocence.
Because it had been a “gift” that essentially tried to leverage itself as a buy-off.
A consolation prize added to a small pile of materialistic goods with an enforced permanent “farewell” in the guise of “visit any time.”
And, she still didn’t understand how people who professed such deep beliefs in God’s “teachings” could ever do such a thing.
(Title play with words)
Something In The Air
“The sky has been displaying imagery and phenomena that I have never seen before.”
Storage
Heaving and cussing, with the best of intentions.
Hon,
There’s a prospective work scenario that keeps playing in my head that I am not comfortable with.
it is preventing my ability to rest and sleep.
(Now And Then – The Beatles)
Trust In “Us”
Reclaiming Space
“It was difficult being squeezed out and against the walls by others taking over the space in my own home, and scattered my sense of self and any functionality after prior car accident injuries were made worse by the shower slip’s concussive fall.”
It’s A Risk We Take
Confessing our hearts’ truths…
Especially when they have hidden something much more essential than what we have known in these material realms.
My Love,
You are, quite literally, the man of my dreams.
Thinking Of You
“Like I Said…”
My Love,
How is it that I can sometimes feel your physical energy around and/or next to me?
