i cannot sleep, again, it has been about two weeks, the voices will not let me be. the feeling is just so overwhelming. i am trying to listen to his music. i want to get into his head. i want to feel what he feels when he listens to this. but then again maybe i shouldn’t. i do not deserve him. he deserves better. a lot better than me. i am not good for him. i wish these feeling would leave me alone. i hate being weak. i hate being alone with these thoughts. in the moments i feel most alive, they bring me lower than the ground. i want to go smoke, just breath deep, inhale, start to lose grip as the smoke fills my lungs. i want to take a drink, begin to feel my body go numb as i drown in the liquor. i want to take a few pills, let it dissolve inside me faster than i am fading away. i want to take the silver metal and run it slowly across my skin. feel the flesh open up underneath its weight. it would only take so much pressure. go slow, make the pain last. watch the crimson tears form and fall. the streaks would follow. i would feel the pain radiate with every breath i take… i want to forget for a few moments the things i have done and the things that will pass that will bring me to my knees. Â i just want to sleep. i want to exhaust every effort to just sleep with out these dreams, i want to be dead to the world for a night.

I remember a long time ago when someone I had been desperately fighting for made her choice – and it wasn’t me. Oh, I was the noble one – the one she knew could make her happy but she chose the one she feared, not he one she loved. I was “too good” for her – she wasn’t good enough for me she said.
I wanted nothing more than to sleep. Just fucking sleep. I didn’t care if I ever woke up. I just wanted to not be. But there is one thing I want to say to you. The one you want does not deserve better. You do. I know it feels like bullshit to read those words and if I could truly believe that myself I might let go of the feelings I still have for the most wicked, evil, self absorbed, weak and abusive person I’ve ever encountered but happened to fall desperately in love with.
I deserved better. I still do and so do you. You deserve someone better than a person so stuck on themselves that they leave you wanting for something you believe you cannot ever have – leave you wanting to destroy yourself over them. I know you’ve heard this before but you don’t really need anyone that can have that much power over you. No one does.
I just hate to see someone in as much pain – pain that I know so accurately and intimately. I obviously have no answers or solutions but I know that people like us are all inside-out. It’s a raw fucking deal anyway you slice it – believe me I know the urge to see my own blood flow. Somehow we always seen to give the scoundrels in our life just what they want, but they don’t deserve that and it is you that deserves better.
Thanks for taking the time to reply. Those words were very encouraging. I’m trying to get it in my head that i deserve good things that im not the only one that makes mistakes. It’s easy during the day, but at night when im alone these thoughts just get the better of me. It’s just hard.I make things difficult for myself. All the things that are wrong in my life are my fault. I don’t know things are complicated right now. Maybe with time…
I’ll agree with the above.
Round of applause for Noz.
I especially liked this part: “The one you want does not deserve better. You do.”
