Every so often,
I'm reminded of some little thing you used to say,
or do that completely overwhelms me,
and I remember why I absolutely adore you.
 I just wanna go back to the "us" we were before.
Let's leave all these bad feelings in the past
and come back to each other. Ik mis je.

[Current Music |I Should've Been A Tsin Tsi For You by Mew]

My complete heart and amorous words have never been sufficient for you.
So your arms retreat in retaliation. I wish they had remained to hold me.
On my darkest descent, I was forced to persevere and make amends for previous wrongs.
Then from a striking distance you look at me with such hatred, such malevolence.
You made a quick riposte; labelling my arguement a cheap fallacy.
You were too much in oblivion to realize how your utterance had perforated my heart.

Your bigotry, my affliction, our shed tears.


Don't you recall how you felt, when I held onto your arm for the first time in Zouk? That special feeling, you know, I felt it too. And I still feel it everytime I think of you.
Don't you recall how you felt, waking up next to me on my bed? You turned to me and just smiled. And with that, I was sure you loved me.

Do I really not matter to you anymore? Honestly have you forgotton all those amazing moments we shared? Because I haven't forgotten one bit and that's what makes it so hard for me to go on without you. I cannot live my life without you Mr. X.
Can you?

On the night of June 24th 2009,
we said,
no matter what or how,
we'll make it work so long as we love each other.

I still believe in that.

I'm caught in the symmetry of your mind. But I'm not happier than you. Did I really see you, or was it just another dream? Dreaming that it was seamless and not a trace of wrong. Wrong words that I have spoken, little did I know. Your bigotry, my shed tears. Oh if... Only you'd try to be polite. But my words are frail. Not audible, they do not quite end. Perhaps they were insufficient? Truly with you the worst is always true. I gave you all the benefits of all the doubts I had. I never hoped to be as benign as me. It's funny how you always get through but ironically you will always be, belle of the ball at least to me. I love you and I need you to know that I don't feel alright. In spite of these comforting sounds I wish you'd make. Yes I kept secrets from you but I don't feel alright because you made a promise that you broke. Can we just leave all this in the past? Into your house or mine, why don't we share our solitude? Nothing is pure anymore but our shared solitude. It's hard to make sense of anything anymore. Feels as if I'm sensing you through a screen. If someone else comes along for you, I'll let it be up to you and I'll just wait. Or maybe I'll fight. Previously, I never called it solitude. And probably you know all the sad things I've done, blunted and exhausted like anyone. Honestly I tried to avoid it. Honestly I know you don't believe me anymore. But back when we were kids, we would always know when to stop. And now all the good kids are messing up, nobody has gained or accomplished anything. I know we still have hope. If you still want me.

[Current Music |Anorexia by Iron Curtain]

I told another lie to Mom today. And I got through this day. No one saw through my games. I know the right words to say. Like, "I don't feel well", "I ate before I came". Then someone tells me how good I look. And for a moment, for a moment I am happy. But when I'm alone, no one hears me cry. I don't know why the first time I felt beautiful was the day I chose not to eat. What I do know is how I've changed my life forever. I know I should know better. There are days when I'm okay cause you're around. And for a moment, for a moment I find hope in you. But there are days when I'm not okay. And I need your help. So I'm not letting go. I need you to know, I'm not myself without you. Some days I'm still fighting to walk towards what's right. I need you to know, that we'll be okay. Together we can make it through all this. You should know you're not on your own. These secrets are walls that keep us alone. I don't know when but I know now that together we'll make it through somehow.

[Current Music |Beauty From Pain by Superchick]

   It's 5am and I'm awoken by my 'hunger pangs'. So, I've decided to share this with you lot who's reading this. This is something I've never spoken about with anyone, well, I've never dared speak about it at least. Maybe this lack of energy is causing my brain's temporary inactivity and that's why I've decided not to keep this secret in anymore and blog about it. Here goes...

I’ve been told this dozens of times. Men prefer girls with curves. Great. Good for them. The gross assumption here is that women are starving themselves to look good for men. Right... This suggests both a level of control we don’t have and a level of arrogance amongst men that is frankly unwarranted.  I don’t give a fuck what men think about my body. This isn’t about vanity, and it’s not about sex. Next time a guy tells me I'd look more attractive if I was rounder, I’m gonna tell him girls prefer guys with three balls. Most women wanna be skinny not to look good for guys. You see, the opinion of "some guy" holds less power than the drive of this disease. When I was in the hospital one of the girls there admitted that she was scared of sex. And for her, anorexia was one way of avoiding it. So men don’t want skinny girls blahblahblah. Yeah right! How many of you guys would turn down a catwalk model if she smiled your way? Okay anyways, the point I'm trying to put across is that although I loathe eating and I purge myself, I am not Anorexic. My bf has shut me out for a month now. I know he’s upset, but I can’t explain these reasons to him. How do you tell someone you love, that your own body makes you sick? And that when you feel too much pain to bare, you are consumed by panic and compelled to starve yourself? The last time one of my girlfriends hugged me, I couldn’t bear it, I cried out "don’t feel my fat" then she laughed at me, and said "what fat?" It’s not possible to get people to understand and it sure as hell isn’t possible to win the argument. We all have different levels of acceptable fat on our own bodies. And I can’t stand the amount of fat on me. It's unacceptable to me. I don’t care if a million people tell me I’m not fat. IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE to me. I still feel fat. It is very, very real to me. But you see, I am not insecure about the skin I'm in, I don't think I'm ugly. I mean, ofcourse I wanna shed a few kgs but mainly why I'm starving and purging is basically just the way I handle pain, I do a pain switch like mentioned in my earlier blog-post, from mental pain to physical pain. With starvation and purging, the physical pain I suffer takes my mind off the pain I feel in my heart and mind. I cannot help it. And I just cannot stop. You'd think I was perfectly normal if you met me but you just haven't taken the time to get to know me yet then. I don't enjoy what I'm doing to myself but with the things I'm facing right now, I'm compelled to do so. I cannot help it, I cannot stop though I really want to. I don't know what to do. Each time before a meal, I tell myself I won't puke but the next thing I know, I find myself shoving a finger down my throat over the toiletbowl. And something disturbing in my mind just tells me to keep going until I spit blood. I don't know why I am sharing this with you, I just am. And I am not crazy. Please try and understand.

I wanna sleep away these feelings. I could go on sleeping for days. Sometimes I wish I could just somehow forget to wake up. I don't understand why but it seems I've been dreaming of you everynight for the past two weeks. There isn't a night when you fail to appear in my sleep. In these sleep-imaginations: we're okay, we're like before. And every night when I dream of you, it seems our relationship gets better. Like somehow in the world of the sleepy and unconcious, we're rebuilding our relationship all over again. I cannot understand why you keep reappearing in my dreams from night to night. It's becoming a habit. And I don't know how to explain but waking up from each and every one of these dreams really reallu hurts. Each time when the dream ends and I regain conciousness, I cuss at my over-imaginative brain and fully dread waking up. I hate that when I wake up each morning, I just find the disappointment of you being gone again. And the fabulous night that I thought I had with you, turns out to be yet another fucking dream. It just makes me feel a whole lot worse. I kinda wish I'd not wake up someday. I know you're going through things, but then again so am I. What I'm struggling with probably can't measure up to your troubles you would say. So let me be there for you. Let me be there with you and hold you. You're not letting me be the girlfriend that I should be for you. You've shut me out for far too long. Shouldn't our love be strong enough for each other to overcome this matter and place it in our past? How long more must we go on like this? I need you and don't you tell me that you don't need me. Come back to me baby :( Come back to me.

Disappearing Act [Oct. 4th, 2009|01:12 am]
[Current Location |Bed]
[Current Mood | worried]
[Current Music |Courage by Superchick]

   This life sucks big time at the moment, and I just started to reapply indifference. I really started telling myself again that I am fine, that I am not doing so bad, that I don’t need treatment and that I can make it. I thought I would be fine and capable to do it on my own. I thought I found that strength within me again, but I guess I am totally off.

Once, in a moment of intense fear, I pressed a razor hard into my thigh and tugged it through the flesh. I watched, suddenly detached, as my blood flowed down my leg. Someone was screaming, while I watched. Or someone was crying. Or maybe it was me, watching and screaming and crying at the same time. The spinning, crazy, awful, out-of-control world had come to an abrupt stop. Then, warm and wet, the towels stained red. I slipped blissfully into unconsciousness. No real pain, at the time. It came afterwards in sudden, hot waves like atomic shame.

The pain of hunger is so different. In some ways worse. Your brain circles around it like wolves around a lamb. Repeatedly poking at it, salt in a wound. You just can't leave it alone. It wakes you suddenly in the night, gnawing at your insides – a dull ache. Sometimes the pain is sharper, stronger and only consuming something can soothe you back to sleep. (In this case, only water is allowed to be consumed.) Or you get those sudden sharp catches in your chest which sets your heart racing in fear. But most of the time, it’s an apathetic kind of pain: it’s there, it hurts, but you’re too damned tired to do anything about it. Or most times, too weak.

Pain is a strange thing, I believe that mental and physical pain are not so far apart as we are led to believe. When I cut myself I was making a choice to turn mental pain, which I couldn’t grasp, into a physical pain, which would ease and go away. The pain of starvation and purging is a middle road between the two: you ease – or numb – the mental pain by putting yourself in a state of constant, mild pain and distraction. For me, life then becomes less real and easier to live in.

We all spend our lives avoiding pain. This is just the way I do it. I occasionally do a pain switch - from mental pain to physical pain.

Oh c'mon and speak to me. You could say anything. Small talk will be, just fine. Your voice is everything. We owe it to love. And it all depends on you. So how do I do normal? The smile I fake, the permanent wave of cue cards and fix-it kits. Can't you tell, I'm not myself? I'm a slow motion accident. Lost in coffee rings and fingerprints. I don't wanna feel anything. But I do, and it all comes back to you. So listen up, this sun hasn't set. I refuse to believe that it's only me feeling. Just hear me out, i'm not over you yet. It's love on the line can you handle it? So listen up, look at me straight. Just hear me out, don't make me wait. I'm not myself. I can't take this. Love's on the line and is that your final answer? I join the queue on your answerphone. And all I am, is holding breath. Just pick up I know you're there...

Backwards, forwards but making no ground at all. Waiting at home with the clocks counting, numbers growing. And my face is still wet from the conversation before. As my tears hit the ground, hoping blue flowers spring from them. Baby, I'm ashamed of the things I put you through. Baby, I'm ashamed of the girl I was for you. How fast must we run before we can just take off in flight? How far must we run before we can overcome this ordeal? So let's take this from the start, you'll be me and I'll be you. And let's try not to complain about your smoking and my distant heart. Then my eyes flooded when all you said in your quietest voice was "I still love you".

There's too many mirrors in this house and I don't like to see myself like this. I'm becoming the girl I used to be I guess? These walls could tell you a thing or two about me. Things that you really don't want to know. Lend me your eyes for your point of view. Lend me your feet and I'll stand strong for you. We might need to rage through all of this life. You see, there may be ones who are smarter than you, that have the right answers and that wear better shoes. Forget about those melting ice caps, we're doing the best with what we've got. And that's all I need. I love you in the morning, when you're still hung over. I love you in the morning, when you're still strung out. When I'm with you, I am calm. Like a pearl in your oyster. My head on your chest and a silent smile - a private kind of happiness. You see giant proclamations are all very fancy. But we don't need that because our love is louder than words.

This Rhyme Is For You My Love [Oct. 2nd, 2009|01:24 am]
[Tags|]
[Current Location |Bed]
[Current Mood | in love]

 

Do you remember writing this to me baby?

Ion square, perspex swings.
I breathe out, you breathe in.
Permanent midnight.
Our love, our love.
How we've come to depend,
on each other til the end.
The space between us has disappeared.
You finish my, you finish my words for me.
I remember how it began.
So many great days in a row.
Barefoot on esplanade.
Trying to find the love we know.
If we could stay like this in a silver foil,
trapped in amber for a life.
Permanent midnight.
Our love, our love.
Who said unbroken happiness
is a bore, is a bore?
Who said it, my love?
I don't mind it anymore, anymore.
And I reach out my hand over your side of the bed,
pull that blanket over your shoulders exposed to the cold.
And the loneliness of those early months will never return.
And I don't mind, I don't mind,
'cause I love my mind when I'm with you.
Slowed down to a crawl.
Years of crime and the grapevine,
have not at all dimmed your shine.

So let's stay in, let the sofa be our car.
Let's stay in, let the TV be our stars.
I found my dancing shoes but they don't fit.
All the bright lights do is bore me.
They bore me.
All I'd like to do,
is remain here with you.
I carry your heart here with me,
I carry it in my heart.
I carry your heart with me,
I carry it in my heart.

I wanna wake up next to you again :( Forgive me for all my wrongs. My world is nothing without you and my days are worthless when you're gone. Remember how we used to be? Remember when you told me you loved me for the first time on the Rooftop? Our love was so sweet. We could return to that. Let me show you that you can trust me again. Give me the chance for us to start all over again. Let us start all over again.

When I wake up, I want it to be next to you again. When I eat, I want you to be staring at me again. When I'm at my worst, I want you to be telling me I'm still beautiful again. When I feel hopeless, I want you to give me hope and remind me to have faith again. When I cry, I want it to be in the comfort of your arms again. When I walk home, I want you to be walking beside and keeping me safe again. When I say I love you, I want you to say it back to me again :,(

From the very beginning, I told you I would wait for you. That Tuesday night, I said to you that no matter what it took or how ever long it takes, I will wait for you. Because my heart only lies with you and with you it will forever remain. And I still stand by that. I know it'll take time for you to forgive me and for things to subside but however long it takes, I will be waiting for you, just as I have always been from the start. I am sorry for the hurt I've brought upon you and if there was anything in this world that I could do to take away your pain, I would in an instant. What is between us now, we can overcome. Our love is stronger than anything else and I know that our love is enough to take away any pain we feel in time. It hurts me to know that I've hurt you. And you have no idea the immense guilt I face everyday when I wake up. I feel so disgusted with myself do you know? I love you Kenneth. And I love you with every inch of my heart. I cannot go on, I cannot live without you. I miss waking up to your text. I miss waking up to your call. I miss waking up to your voice. I miss waking up to your smile. I miss waking up to your smell. I miss waking up with your arms wrapped around me. I miss you. Please come back to me my Kenneth Shmenneth.


Do you remember how I stayed out with you til 3AM in the morning on my birthday? Do you remember the conversation we had? Do you remember when my tears smudged my eyeliner that night, you said I looked like some junkie but you said I still looked pretty? I miss you. Come back to me Kenneth.

The perfect words never crossed my mind cause there was nothing in there but you. I could be stuck like this for a thousand years without your arms to drag me out. Hold me close cause I need you to guide me to safety. In the confusion and the aftermath, you are my signal fire.
The only resolution and the only joy, is the faint spark of forgiveness in your eyes.

Just give a second thought, what if we never fought?
So 
say you love me now and forget this whole row.
Just save your energy for making up with me.

   I changed my colour for you. I shed my coat with caution. I lack the beauty you display. See here, there are the bruises. And all were self-inflicted. The bruises showed up along the way. So I nod my head, I'm ready for the world to see. The secret I kept here inside, the person you thought I would be. I slip into coma calm - the coma where I calm myself down. Here comes excuses why I let you down. Stand by for another breakdown and sound off the alarm. So now we've come upon the worst thing I've ever done: It's telling you that I'm a mess. What sort of mess I mean is self-destructive gasoline. The kind that strips you of your greatest. And eventually we play our promise, the way that most would end up dead. Then, you sleep alone at home and wish that I was in your bed. With this I'm telling you, my colour changes back to dull. I try to think of all the people I look up to or growing up who would I be like. Now the twisted part, where did all my idols end up? They all passed away. Now how do i ask you this... Will you help me through?

Just lay it all down. Put your face into my neck and let it fall out. This world you're in now, it doesn't have to be alone. I'll get there somehow. You were blessed by a different kind of inner view: it's all magnified. The highs would make you fly, and the lows make you want to die. I was once there, hanging from that very ledge where you are standing. So I know it's easier to let go. But I will learn to breathe this ugliness you see, so we can both be there and we can both share the dark. And in our honesty, together we will rise out of our nightminds and into the light at the end of the fight.

You're never around anymore and it breaks my heart. I miss you.

Here we go, take a bow. You were not there for me when I needed you and honestly I think I love you more. If that's possible, I think I love you more. I'm quite sure that my heart can't take it anymore. I'm so scared of cracking up again. I just wanna return to the way we were before. And I'm quite certain that my heart can't take much more of this nothing. You say that you need some time but how long does it take to see that we are more than meant to be? I'm waiting for the perfect time to call you back. Because I remember thinking, I don't wanna know the truth, I can't handle that. And I try to just forget you but I don't know how. If only I knew. Can't you see what's written all over my face? It's such a painful thing to waste. Tell me now, where do we go from here? Now the future's not so clear and I can't believe we've ended up here. We were so happy before. I want that back. I'm sorry if I slagged you down, I meant no harm. I said things I didn't mean and I should have stayed calm. But sadly you got angry and it breaks my heart. You're so mad at me. The more I think, the more I'm unsure of what to believe. Why bring me down and complicate things? You take my words but then you hear them in a different way. The way you're "talking" leaves me not quite sure what to say. When you start speaking will it be too late? Do you remember when we talked for hours on the phone? Just being stupid but at least we didn't pretend. Your smile helped me to find my way. Who's listening to me now? Why won't you? Find me and show me, what do you want from me? There has got to be better than this. I don't wanna leave you. But what if you want me to? There has got to be another way. Kenneth answer me, or we'll never know.

Look at me up in the sky. I watch the world just pass me by. And all my feelings give me away. It's happening more everyday. But how can I try to explain. Your story never seems to stay the same. You're out of touch and I'm out of time. Just talk to me a while, and joke about the things we used to say. It's so hard for me to smile. I've never felt so alone. After all of this there's so much left to lose. And I've taken pieces home. I promise you I never meant to. Hold me now, don't wake me up. Pull me down and then back up. All again, for all to see. Low down whisper and guilty stare. Your stagnant charm makes me glare. Silly games in the sun. But how can I complain? When everbody seems to know my name. I'm out of luck and you're out of line. It's such a selfish compromise. A self indulgent, useless, bunch of lies. I never thought I would believe. Maybe a change would keep me high, stop me thinking and wondering why:  Loving you would be so easy. Loving you could be so great.

The grave visit last Tuesday was somewhat atypical. I felt the kinda out-of-place feeling at his plot that I've never gotten ever before all the years when visiting him. It's not so personal anymore - the plot that is. The sad thing is, the connection to him that I'd always get when at his plot, I got no longer. I couldn't feel him anymore. You know how much more hurtful that is for me? The closest that I'd get to him physically and the most that I'd ever get from him, I finally realize is now gone with this cursed reburial idea. I hate this. Truly. We were at the grave and we read our prayers but I felt nothing. Staring down at the plot, I really couldn't feel him. I couldn't feel his presense anymore. All that ran through my head were memories of the reburial. It's like the one thing that connected me to him, the one place that I could feel so comfortable, the one place that I could actually feel him, was taken away from me just like that. I don't know how to describe the feeling to you. When I lost him in 93, it never in a million years crossed my mind that I would lose him a second time. But I lost him again. Fucking twice. The feeling I use to get at his old grave can never return to me.

It has been the greatest three months of my life being with you. Even though the last three weeks haven't been exactly what we dreamed of, I know we can overcome it. We were so happy once and I miss that truly. I miss you more than anything else. I hope that when you are ready to see me again one day, we can go back to how you and I used to be. I wish so much to forget all this sadness that we've been through and to begin with you all over again; with only our fondest memories and our love to share. You're probably sick of hearing this - I love you - but I'll never ever stop saying it. Happy 3rd Month Kenneth ♥

Hug me till you drug me honey
Kiss me till i'm in a coma

Hug me
Kiss me
Drug me honey

Ever since i was born
I've been trained to serve you
Am I not all you dreamed I would be?

Yes you're right, things will never be the same. I still love you with every beat of my heart but I don't know what to do right now. Everything's just coming crashing down on me and my heart feels too heavy. September has been so hard - things with family and things with you. I'm aware you are going through your fair share of troubles but I wish we could forget everything hurtful between us and just let it go. I cannot take it baby. I am going to crumble. Who's going to piece me back together if not you? I admit that what I did to you was very very wrong and I wish there was something I could do to take it all back. I'd do anything to undo the hurt I've caused you. I made a huge mistake. People make mistakes but I just cannot believe what you did. Thank you for telling me you broke the promise though. So tell me something else now Kenneth, give me a solution, where do we go from here? What do we do now? Tell me you still want us. You gotta talk to me, don't leave me hanging. Maybe you need some time away from me? I don't know. But then again, it's not like we've been around each other the past few weeks anyways. Call me and tell me what you want out of this relationship now. I need you to tell me what you want. Because I sure as hell know what I want. And it's the same thing I've always wanted from the very first time we met. I love you so fucking much Kenneth, you may not believe me but I feel it in my heart and whatever's happening between us now is breaking me. Don't let go of my love.

Did I drive you away? I know what you'll say. You'll say, "Oh, sing one we know". But I promise you this, I'll always look out for you. That's what I'll do. My heart is yours. It's you that I hold on to. That's what I'll do. But I know I was wrong, and I won't let you down. But I'll sing "Oh". I cry "Oh". Yeah I saw sparks. Yeah I saw sparks between us. And I saw sparks. Singing out. ~

Oh no, I see, a spider web is tangled up with me. And I lost my head, the thought of all the stupid things I've said. Oh no, what's this? A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle. So I turn to run, the thought of all the stupid things I've done. And I never meant to cause you trouble. I never meant to do you wrong. And well if I ever caused you trouble, no, I never meant to do you harm.

Oh no, I see, a spider web and it's me in the middle. So I twist and turn, here am I in my little bubble. You see I never meant to cause you trouble. And I never meant to do you wrong. Well if I ever caused you trouble, no, I never meant to do you harm. They spun a web for me. My family, my friends, they spun a web for me. But what if I got it all wrong?

Cariño,

Te amo con todo mi corazón. Mi amor por ti es real y más de lo que tú piensas. Has llegado a mi vida y me as hecho sentir especial. Mi corazón no tiene cabida para otros chicos. Eres el único en mi corazón. Mi amor, por favor dame la oportunidad. Lo prometo seré mejor por ti. Ten fé en mi. Siempre estás en mi mente. Eres la persona más importante para mi. Completas mi vida. Eres mi todo. Incluso en los malos tiempos, mi amor perdura y me importa que lo percibas.

Te amo para toda la vida.

SEPTEMBER 16TH 1950-1993 [Sep. 16th, 2009|08:49 pm]

[Current Mood | distressed]

This blog post is personal and written only for my closest friends to read. If you don't know me well, don't try to understand. Don't even bother reading because what I am about to write is a very sensitive topic for me. Please respect my privacy ~

So anyways, today was pretty peculiar? I was really hesitant to even go out of the house since it's his birthday and deathday today. I thought maybe it'd be best if I stayed home and mourn? Yeah okay well, that sounds pathetic. I had a feeling that if I stayed home I would've been an emotional wreck. So I decided yesterday that I'd meet Amy to get my mind away from thinking today.

Getting ready earlier this afternoon, I tried to rush prepping my face and hair for I was like already 2hours late to meet Amy. Overslept as usual :/ Then Biko by Bloc Party played on my itunes and that completely interupted my mind with thoughts of my Biko, him. Well, Biko is a term to address a loved one in the native Nigerian language. Anyways I wasn't thinking much about him, tried my best to not let my mind wonder upon the topic but once that Biko song played, I snapped.

Though it happened many many years ago, the grief til today is still unbearable. I felt weak in the knees and just literally let myself fall to the floor and tear. I decided then that the one person I really really needed with me today out of any other day was ofcourse Kenneth. We didn't see each other for two whole weeks or even contacted much for that matter but I was ready to drop all the fucking tension between us just to have Ken beside me again. Even if for a minute or so, I just needed Ken's presense.

So, I asked him to meet me and eventually I took a cab to his place. When we met, he gave me a long hug which felt extraodinary. The feeling was indescribable. That one sincere hug was all that took to lift so much off my chest. Ken lifted sooo much off my chest without even trying and he didn't even realize it. I cannot begin to describe to you what that hug did to me. We had about only an hour together so I just wanted to make the most out of the sixty minutes and try not to bring up anything about "the talk" that I've been longing to have with him.

Gotta admit that Ken hasn't been around much for the past two weeks but today when I honestly needed him more than ever, he was there for me and I appreciate it. So thank you baby.
I love you. So anyways after Ken left, Amy, Ratna and I sat at Starbucks Eastpoint and just chatted and chatted. We had pretty good laughs and it really helped my emotions. My girls look fantabulous with their newly done hair by the way :]

Well, now I'm home and I seriously wish Ken is here with me again :/ I need him. Sat in my room earlier and overheard Mama pray for him from her room. I hardly hear her pray unless it's an occasion. Today being his birth and death day, I can only imagine how Mama feels when she recites the prayer. Knowing the pain Mama feels only makes the grief on my end more unbearable. We as a family don't talk much about him because we know if we bring him up, it would only cause an emotional breakdown between each one of us. We are very aware of one another's grief but we never dare talk about it. The topic is too painful.

The first thought that came to my mind last night as the clock struck midnight to September 16th, was what I went through on June 8th 2009. I still do not regret my decision to be present at his reburial and I never will regret. But it causes me unimaginable distress when the images of his remains flash through my mind time and again. I wish I could convey to you readers how much it fucking hurts.
Kenneth, I need you.

You say it's not what you do, it's what you're thinking of. Well I think it's just an excuse, it's what you put across. So make sure you're thinking it through. You've let me down again. Offer me something I know you really meant. Cause I don't wanna be the one only overjoyed. I don't wanna be the one making all the noise. I don't wanna be the one. What you gonna offer now? This was not my idea. Don't you keep me waiting. What you gonna offer now?

All that I did was walk over and start off by shaking your hand. That's how it went. I had a smile on my face and I sat up straight. I wanted to know you. I wanted to show you love. You don't know me, don't ignore me. You don't want me there, you just shut me out. You don't know me, don't ignore me. If you had your way, you'd just shut me up and make me go away. I just don't understand why you won't talk to me. It hurts that I'm so unwanted for nothing. Don't talk words against me. I wanted to know you. I wanted to show you love. I tried to belong. It didn't seem wrong. My head aches. Its been so long but if that's what it takes...

Ich liebe dich immer noch, auch wenn du mich nicht mehr liebst. Meine liebe gehört ewig dir. Ich liebe dich von ganzem herzen. Ich werde dich für immer lieben.

You walked with me, footprints in the sand. And helped me understand where I'm going. You walked with me, when I was all alone with so much unknown along the way. I see my life flash across the sky. So many times have I been so afraid. And just when I thought I've lost my way, you give me strength to carry on. When I needed you, I know you've always been there. That's when I heard you say: I promise you I'm always there. When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair, I'll carry you. When you need a friend, you'll find my footprints in the sand.

Volver por favor?

Kenneth,

I miss you when something really good happens, because you're the one I want to share it with. I miss you when something is troubling me, because you're the only one who understands me so well. I miss you when I laugh and cry, because I know that you're the one who makes my laughter grow and my tears disappear. I miss you all the time, but I miss you the most when I lie awake at night and think of all the special times we've spent with each other because those were some of the best moments of my life.
- ❤ -

When you smiled, you had my undivided attention. When you laughed, you had my craving to laugh with you. When you stessed, you had my urge to hold you. When you said you loved me, you had my heart forever.

Baby, please don't ever go away. But if you have to go, then don't forget to take me with you :)
