So tonight Carlos messages me, He's upset and I ask why, and his current boyfriends ex died in a car crash. Two weekends before I was a bitch to that guy, and now I find myself messaging him saying if he needs me I'll be there.
It made me think, what would I do if anyone close to me died. Since I have not lost a person to death yet that greatly affects my life and I thank God for that because I don't know how I would deal.
I would loose myself, that piece that that person holds would be taken and with each death my heart would be a void. Because I can always create new openings, but they will never fit the same.
I can't forget the amazing lives that have touched me, and I have some pretty amazing people in my life.
My ex for one, I love her with all that I am, and my several friends. My best friend Dana and of course Carlos. . .No I wouldn't survive. My family, I would go insane, because they have to put up with me.
I realized that I don;t call them enough, and I don't know if the people around me would know I love them, I know a few people who wouldn't like LJ and Marian.
I was once asked my greatest fear, and it's always been of loosing people close to me. It tears me open each and every time. But I'm not so sure, I know how it feels to be unwanted, and unloved. No one should feel that. No one should feel that worthless.
So tomorrow I am so gonna call everyone, fuck the petty arguments. Tell them that I love them and I thank god they are in my life.
Thank you Lord for blessing me with the people in my life, I don't know how much I can say that. Thank you for blessing me with this life and the person that I am.
Thank you Dana, Carlos, Ashaki, and so many others. My family thank you for helping me in the most drastic times of need. Thank you Sabrina for showing me a deep unexplained love that I could never recieve from anyone else in this world.
Thank you for everyone that has ever hugged me in person or virtually and held me saying it will be ok. And Christina, thank you for being there for two long years and saving me from myself. Thank you Rae for being my first best friend. The first person I could count on and lean on. You all saved me.
I just hope you all know just how much ....
I'm crying as I write this trying to find words that will convey my emotions and for once in my life description is fading me.
I love so many people and for so long I wanted to die. I hated myself, my life, and my situation. I lied about everything down to what food I liked because I tried to change everything about me. I made up people in my mind. Because they were a lot better than the people around me. Or so I thought. . . . The people of my past are still so deeply engraved in my heart in my soul and the people in my life right now are so amazing I am terrified.
Utterly terrified, I can't breathe due to hyperventilating because I know that I am not that angel that everyone sees. I lost my innocence a long time ago and these amazing and beautiful people are left with this scared over emotional being that can not survive on her own.
I want to be so much better . . for the people around me. I want to be that amazing person I always saw myself as. Until then, I try to hide it and I do it so so well sometimes. I am so thankful for that because they dont deserve this shell and I don't want them to have anything less than the best I can be. I want them to have a reason to be proud to call me theirs . . .
So Lord, please let them stay . . please . . I have so many dreams . . and I don't want them to feel as if they are wasting their time.
When my dad left . .or when he didn't want anything to do with me . . It hurt so bad but it was ok because I have so many other people in my life. When my mom hurts me or my grandma . . . I close my eyes and imagine all the people that make me smile and I think that I am being punished . . because I'm not what they deserve . . but I know that that's not logical . . so please just stay a little while longer . . and I promise that I'll do my best to make it up to you.
