Faceless Stalker

I lived a year in an air-less stunted place,
following time and instruction mindlessly.
Days passed into night as my mind took a holiday. I wished for unattainable realities,
Hoped for things I never before had the chance to get,
And i reached for them undaunted...ready for failure and rejection
Yet not expecting it.
Day after day until ultimately I broke the cycle
By writing down my feelings...
With the uncontrollable need to confront
And resolve things once and for all.
But even these were rejected,
Thrown back in my face, insignificant,
meaningless, unwanted.
"if you're gonna want us as more than just friends, then we should not be friends."
Did those words really come from a human being? Was i wrong about him after all this time?
Those words cut straight to heart...
In every way that counted.
I had thought that I'd found something special, someone unknown and sacred, someone I could be utterly comfortable with,
And in one intentional stroke...
He destroyed it.
The first in years who had earned my trust completely...Only he took it
And threw, what he couldn't handle,
Back in my face.
Torment and humiliation consumed me,
what a fool I'd been...
Never again.
Never shall i follow these blasted instincts,
Not where his kind is concerned.
I will not feel.
I refuse to acknowledge them from this day forth.
For friendship is no more true then a green field of daisies in a sunny thunderstorm,
And love no more than a human measure
To retain sanity.
There's no room for hope....
It just brings anger and insanity.
And from this terrible place I wake...
Nightmarish images popping up
From time to time but well under control.
Places that we shared bringing memories,
and laughter. At night before i had to leave...
Memories unwanted...
And now I trek, strangely reluctant to the
New year. God i still wonder how the goodness turned to hate so quickly.
He pretended friendship,
Always. why? Did he get some thrill out of rejecting a friend? or was it...
My fault?
I need no-one, nothing...never ever will.
Barriers currently seem fully functional.
I refuse to feel, want, need.
No more will I enjoy the emotions that come...for they will be dependent on another human being and i have become wary of those. Incessant questions and doubts will always follow.
Don't build the door, or the memories
because time cannot unmake them.
Gather, compress and discard.
Delete all that hurt because it is indifference that will help in the end.
Only indifference.
Heart protected by steel stakes...
Embedded deeply to cause numbness,
Never more...
You are forgiven.

You're right Christina, I'd doubted the existance of God and the Hereafter...of heaven and everything! But experiences and these 'tests' sometimes puts everything in perspective. I appreciate the simple pleasures of life even more now. And you figure that the only way to get thro' life and the obstacles...is to have faith and never EVER give up. Hopefully ;) I'll get to Heaven someday. *lol* Thanx for reading my poem, I look forward to reading some of urs. take care. |
