Self-Realization?

by RobertWesterlund   Mar 23, 2008


It was dark, the rain was coming down like a volley of meteors. The air was stale and this feeling of tension flowed throughout the room, time was going by like the dripping of molasses on a winter night. These uneasy feeling ate me like a school of piranhas, confusion entered my mind. We were sitting there face to face but not a word is uttered between us, until these silent screams in my head became unbearable. So I broke the silence and asked " what's wrong, what's on your mind?" She hesitantly started to break, letting me in but not enough to know I am there. The words she spoke entered my heart like a wooden stake. I built her up so she could knock me down. Was I the blind man for the obvious or was she so well dressed in her masquerade that she really covered the truth and her feelings alone with it. Through her eyes me and my gender were the enemy, but her and her gender could do no wrong. But is she entirely wrong or dose she just have a very narrow-sided mind. The same mind that can't decide if hates me and don't trust me, or she don't want try to care about and trust me, or she is too scared about what might happen if she lets me in and won't try. These things I ask myself why? Why dose she make reasons appear not to trust or like me? Why when we are so much alike dose she dislike me? Why dose she give me all the signs and I follow them and she rips my legs out from underneath me? Is there something that wrong with me I wonder? How can she stereo-type me without really opening up and knowing me, knowing what lies within my heart. My feelings grow for her with each remaining day of my life and each time she denies me. Each thorn and cut she pierced me with undoubtedly drew me closer to her, my one true love. So I wait till that day.
