i'm in love with something i can't quite figure out.
it's halfway between a crush on someone and profound love for someone else who can't ever return it.
and the prospect of being loved. and the melting of the snow.
and the whole world with its valleys and crevasses and rivers and jungles and trees and glaciers and mountains.
life is totally falling apart when i thought it was falling into place but that's ok.
it's only a transitional stage. like the fox said when they started to skin him...
what i wouldn't do to be honest and just put myself out there.
you're pretty amazing, i hope you know that.

sealion
here's a secret i don't want to keep anymore:
every once in a while, i check craigslist -> missed connections, secretly wishing someone thought i was important enough to find. that i was someone a random stranger wanted to talk to.
i haven't been yet. but every once in a while i keep checking.
i have a headache. i feel stupid. i am tired but can't sleep. i am worried. i am apprehensive. i want to sleep for a week. i miss my xbox. i want a summer job. i don't want to go to ASL in the morning. i love blood oranges. my room is a mess. my head feels like a mess. i'm doing ok. i miss you.
i'm not supposed to miss you. i know where you bought that sweater. i saw it today, i touched it and felt sad for a second. i miss you.

sick muse.
i want to take you for tea.
then take your clothes off.
is that so bad? probably. i think that ship sailed yeeeaaaarrrrrs ago.
but here i am. let's put that record on the player... settle in and count the freckles on our arms and draw triangles on our thighs.
after, we'd play mario kart. if you take wario i swear to god i'll leave you.
i'll make you breakfast in the morning. only if you promise to pretend to sleep as i skirt out of the room, out of the sheets and out of your arms. what would you like, my love?
it's sunday afternoon and the sun is out. it's the middle of june and we walk hand in hand in the only place in the city that's beautiful.
why is everything in life so cyclical? running in circles, feeling in spheres, elliptical orbits around the sun. what would you like, my love?
i want to take you back to my hypothetical apartment. there are large windows covered in sheer white curtains, i have hardwood floors too. the kitchen is simple and modern, cleaner than clean and i'm making milkshakes. i have chocolate, vanilla or peanut butter ice cream. which would you like, my love?
climb into bed with me. i just think i need a bit of your skin. we'll worry about the morality and ethics of this twisted web we weave in the morning.

extraordinary things
pupils catch each other across a long, black table.
quickly we divert attention. shifting blame onto the floor where it belongs.
"i'm sorry" i say.
"hrmph". his reaction, while not unexpected reeks of self pity.
"no i'm not" i reply second handedly. "this whole thing was laid out for you before anything even happened. this isn't about the keys or the cords or the silence or the foot prints. this isn't about me or you. or her. or him or anyone else. this was something you were supposed to be ready for."
your silence explains so much more than i could have ever expected.
"maybe i'm not sorry because i should be sorry. but sorry because i can't be sorry. what else can i say besides nothing?"
i am teetering on the edge of hating you. i am slowly descending into a world where i am better without you in my life. it's easier to say nothing, it always is. and i guess when it's so far removed from area codes, provincial boundaries and even the way the moon looks in the sky, 0.02 degrees left of centre... it really is easier to say nothing.
i will keep my memories and the photos that haven't been erased from my life due to complete and total technological melt down. you can keep whatever it is you try to make yourself think makes you happy.
but i think we should be sorry because we aren't sorry. it's natural progression i guess.
i'll keep immersing myself in love and then loneliness. and more love and loneliness.
i have plenty of dvds to keep me company in this bed.
i hope you find what you're looking for. i just can't help you find it anymore.

deal.
deal breakers.
on the one side:
i feel very sad about being a human being lately. it's something i can't describe, but i just want to cry when i think about people as a society. it's the most ridiculous/emotional/nonsensical thing ever, but i'm just feeling weird about life on this planet. and words. and how people have mothers and fathers. or friends. or siblings. the music people like, that i don't like. and how i don't like their music sometimes. and how tim horton's means more to me symbolically than the canadian flag. and how patriotism is so stupid in the first place. and how much i love the ocean. and how much i love my family. and how far away my family is from the ocean. and how much i don't want to grow up. and how much i'm afraid of growing up. and how when i'm stressed out, everything becomes a big deal that isn't a big deal. and i feel isolated and alone. and i hate that. and i love starting sentences with and even though it's a major faux passe. i'm kind of a headcase but i hope you can love that about me. because i think a lot. only because i love things a lot. and i miss things when they are gone. and change is hard.
I NEED A VACATION TO SOMEPLACE WARM OR SOMETHING.
brain needs off switch. i want salad.
deal breakers.
on the one side:
- kind of like you
- kind of need sleep
- want vanilla chai
- have clean sheets
- am generally excited
- music
- liking you is dumb
- so so tired
- diagnosed with apathy
- haircut needs to happen
- would rather sleep
- so much work
- can't visualize
- can't plan
- can't stick to plans
- fear or something
- no energy
