Restless moments

I can’t help but pace, mewing and growling softly to myself. 

For all I’m supposed to be happy and carefree, for all I’m supposed to be… I find myself just…

lonely.

No… not lonely, how can I be?  I’ve always got people to talk to, I just got handfasted, I’ve got my best friend back from the grave, there shouldn’t be anything I crave.  And yet, I do.  There’s someting, something very deep, that’s missing.  I can’t put it to words, it scares me even picking it out from the cacophany in my head that there’s something off.

So what is it?  What is this need I have, what is this desire?  Why am I so greedy, why am I so above things that I should think I deserve this happiness when I should be happy with what I have.  A bright man once told me, it’s not having what you want, it’s wanting what you have.  Well, I do have what I want, and want what I have, to a point.  But then the height of greed, of hubris… I want more.  Nobody really deserves perfect happiness, I’m not special in that regard.

Blegh. I’m babbling.  And to no really good end… just babbling. 

I’m just lonely enough to let my babbling loose on the big wide universe.

A peaceful moment (RP)

*RP*

Sitting here on the banks at Kittyswitch, watching the water lapping at the shore, I let my mind wander.  Play over the faces and hearts I’ve learned to love and lose over the past year.  What all have I done, what have I learned?  I’m getting handfasted in three days, and two faces keep looking back at me from the water, reminding me of things past, making me fear hurting the present.

Do I hold back, hiding, recovering, forever?  Seeing my heart’s dead alive and walking, fearing what I may show to them… Is it worth it?  I could just turn my back on everything, let my heart grow cold, but then that would be akin to death for myself.  And yet here I am, drowning in the silent drama of my own heart. 

The first I’ve held back out of necessity, for following rules, and then because I realized the depth with which I cared.  Seeing his other scars has made me pull back, knowing I could be burnt just as easily… knowing I couldn’t just be something disposable, someting light and airy like candy but then tossed away at the merest inconvenience.  So for that reason I’ve bound myself, danced on the surface, and only barely sipped from the cup.

The second… well, there is no saving grace, nothing I can do.  The impasse is there, two cliffs and a great divide, and there is no bridging the crevasse.  That isn’t nearly as painful or filled with doubt, as it’s easier to keep walking and not be tempted to build a bridge when you know they’re not going to help to build it halfway.

Still, I know the path I’m on is stable and peaceful, and I’m looking forward to the handfasting.  I have a dress.. and I’ve been assured that I don’t need to wear shoes.  *bounces*

New blog… more to come… I’m guessing this will be a mixed rp/rl blog, depending on what moves me at that moment.  Right now… just go listen to “Grace is Gone” by DMB and listen to it, let it caress your mind.
