Sometimes when I’m on
I’m really fucking on
and my friends all sing along and they love me.
But the lows are so extreme
that the good seems fucking cheap,
and it teases me for weeks in its absence.
But I’ll fight, and I’ll make it through.
I’ll fake it if I have to
and I’ll show up for work with a smile.
I’ll be better, I’ll be smarter,
more grown up and a better daughter
and a real good friend.

From across the table, my eyes never leave his.
His lips sip from his mug and I yearn for them to be on me.
Inching closer, our feet mingle;
our hands touch again and there’s nothing that can break our stare.
Lips embrace, tongues mesh,
pure passion – straight up.
But the only thing we’re sharing is this diner’s booth,
and conversation over coffee.
I shake my head and ask him to repeat that last sentence
Reality sets in and I need a refill.
Here I am, sitting in front of my Mac with my Oriental Shorthair purring in my lap, typing, rambling away as an attempt to make sense of my racing thoughts and cycling moods. I’m feeling down, but I know it could be worse. I feel submerged in lonliness but I know I’m not alone. A few years ago, if I were to dip into a mood like this, I would swallow half a bottle of NyQuil and draw a razor blade over my thighs until I passed out from the sedative. I certainly am making progress with this. I need to remember that.
Just breathe.
Its gonna be okay.
Good night everyone,
Meg
