i don't believe in love.
i believe there is a path to love.
but it's never reached.
love is confusing.
love is a lie.
i don't believe in love.
and i will tell myself this.
i will tell it so i don't get broken.

when i picture myself writing
it's sequences of close up shots of my hands.
a quill.
a parchment.
i traditional woman, i'd be.
writing love letters and crying because you're off sailing the seas.
i know one day you may return.
..at least i hope.

don't you see what you're doing?
when you say you don't love me?

pulled.
tampered.
and cut.
the only strings left of my heart.

let you in.
let you know.

and because of you my sleeves are sewn shut.

pulled.
tampered.
and cut.

let you in.
let you know.

and
i'll
not
sit
in
pity.

it's me who trusted.
even when i knew not to trust.

because i

let you in.
let you know.

all of me.

i thought that when i was alive i was the most unhappy i've ever been.
then...then i ended it.
hoping.
wishing.
hell, even praying that i would be happier not existing.
boy was i wrong.
so wrong, in fact, that if i could go back to my miserable ****** little life...
i would.
in a heart beat.
the "afterlife", if you could call it that, is a horrible place.
and i wasn't around everyone that just died.
i was around all the sad ***** who thought the same way i did.
that ending it would be the answer.
there's a place for everyone after death.
depending on how you died you would end up there.
so all that ******* about being with your loved ones after you die, is total ****.
i mean, i was alone here.
and everyone else you talk to didn't learn anything.
they just went on be miserable.
and the stories they tell!
a person could just go crazy.
i learned. i learned that if i took my afterlife i'd probably just end up in a ******* mess than what i was already in.

.....
to be continued.

as time proceeds i wonder how long i'll be able to hang on.
always looking after you.
taking care of you hand and foot.
dishes.
groceries.
house cleaning.
the rest.
you'd think i was the wife.
i would be pleased to remind you that i'm your kin.
and i need looking after.
but you kindly forget.
pub. after pub.
how is your stumbling stature
of any appeal to the opposite ***?
no wonder she left you.
i'm wondering how much longer i'd be able to hang on.
