~Will You Hold On When I Try To Let Go?~

What will your heart do if I've doubted us again?
When I need more reassurance because the miles are getting hard on my heart
will you love me harder
or give up?
All I know is that my Love for you has never wavered~
It is as true and as steady as It was before
and fills me up and over.
When I am here with you, when we are in Love's arms
even across the many miles, I don't question your Love for even a second.
But time and missing you swallows all that...
It leaves me wanting to hear those words,
to see the Love again in your eyes
and to feel again your promise.
If I am asking too much I know we will be at the edge of goodbye again
because I am only human
with a frail heart
and a love for you that leaves me needing to feel your heart.
I can hide it-
Simply put my needs aside and pretend everything is okay
but you see through it all.
I could tell you but that makes you feel like you are loving in vain.
I am asking only for some time to see my way clear of this mess in my heart-
To allow my heart the chance to test the path we are on
and see that its always been
and will always be
clear of all breaks as we walk.
Hold my hand,
my heart,
my eyes,
and give me time to truly see that you are still here,
still loving me and going nowhere...
Someday so soon we will both be surprised and so happy
when we've realized how far we've gone without having had to stop again.
It will be so easy, so free once we get past the first several bumps and breaks
and I've seen that you are still here-
felt that you were still with me like no man before you--
That we are meant forever to be in each others hearts and holding hands.

Reaching out is the most difficult part

Apparently in spite of all the good things in my life I am currently caught, again, in the tight grip of depression. While I've experienced it most of my life, I can't always recognize that is has me until I'm well imprisoned by it's firm hold. One minute I'm laughing and enjoying the little things in life, the next I'm struggling with ugly, broken thoughts. And like pieces of glass in my head, the thoughts cut into the flesh and leave me bleeding only darkness. When I am in a depressive state I am not sad all the time. There isn't some large black cloud that follows me everywhere. If we are to compare it to weather, which I usually do not, I honestly feel soothed by the darkness because the sunshine is too much a reminder of what I should or could be. Depression for me is eating to try to fill the empty spaces inside. It's denying the sunshine by closing all the blinds. It's sitting at the dining room table with Jesse's family and my own dau...

~Your loss, My Gain~

Image
Okay, so its over. I wrote you an e-mail along with the blog, asked you to consider working through our problems to get back to our friendship but you have gone unseen and unheard. I should not be surprised. In fact, I should be relieved as I feel that I am the one who fought for us while you just rode the waves. I am a woman, lost at times, full of self-doubt and feelings of abandonment. Sadly, having issues like these can make maintaining a long-distance friendship hard. Even more difficult is when the other person goes along fine,it seems, but is never honest about their feelings like I believe you weren't. It's very possible that all that we went through was my fault and that I made it a mess from day one but you won't voice your emotions so how can I see anything but my side? I really wanted to see yours but I couldn't, you wouldn't let me. My last e-mail I asked you to come chat, to talk about what happened, or didn't happen, to cause me to think tha...

~ The Silencing Of An Abused Voice ~

When you go through life feeling almost everything that happens around you, it can be very difficult to separate your heart from your mind and what you feel from what you know.  Most thoughts are rooted in emotions when you feel so much.  Your perception of the world and how it views you is influenced by your own self-worth. Perhaps over feeling everything has to do with being abused~ At least for me. Sexually, mentally and physically~ All forms of abuse can eat away at the core of self worth and become so overwhelming that in time it's all one can do to not pick everything apart-even compliments-for some hidden insult. It's exhausting, to say the least, and it can put a lot of distance between yourself and others.  As if you aren't lonely enough in that dark and cold place, you become a victim of your own thoughts, doubts and worries. You feel shame for the abuse because in your heart, you wonder what you did to deserve it, to cause it. Your brain tells you that these...
