Speak Your Mind Fridays; created and ran by Schrody & Reesa. I used to do this daily on this here blogspot. It's really been a minute. I should be resting and getting ready & such, but I can't even focus on that. I'm going to attempt to focus on this ? Mm I don't want to talk about life, well my life that is, like that blog where I talk about what I've done in the past few days. Quite frankly, I'm barely interested in the things I've been doing. I can begin to explain how I've been feeling about things lately. That's rather mundane, too. Well no, I've been feeling so much better about things. A lot better at least. I'm not even speaking about things in general. I'm talking about my relationships, the small ones and the one I'm invested in. To think that one year ago, around this time, I had the same feeling as I have right now is indescribable. My claim to fame has been, the one who doesn't put up with it, whatever it may be. But we all take that persona huh ? Put up that wall ?...the one that gets knocked down for certain situations. Well my wall has been down. Just recently it was reconstructed.
Reconstruction by one definition is to
reassemble mentally. Well put there, Webster. A while ago in my common growth, a wall was simultaneously built. The Great Wall of Ryah. Organized in a fashion that included thought and reasoning. Each stone placed over a feeling that was supposed to never be revealed. Strength that could withstand the unholiest war. Almost stubborn enough to endure love. Not the love we are born with, the one that grows for another person. (I have a habit of putting my all into every situation and though I already know it to be fact, I could never get with loving someone wholeheartedly, and not getting that shit back). This kinda love grew through cracks I thought were mended. I won't even drag this on, my wall crumbled with no defense. I had no more defense, I didn't even want to fight what I felt. Each and every piece was on the ground but my heart, I swear, was as complete as I wanted it to be. It never went back up and I looked forward to every day with him.
Had them days you just can't put into words. Wrote our names in the sand, just not too close to the water, because we just knew that what we had wouldn't wash away. Nothing was traded, nothing was altered, and opposites weren't attracted. We built our own wall that wasn't symbolically there, it was literally there to withstand our troubles as a whole. I wanted to have a love that was indescribable, and it was. I swore our four month-iversary was like our 50th anniversary, for I had never been in a reeeal relationship that long. But that 50th anniversary old folks have where they're still madly in love, is how I felt. Nothing's perfect but shit we were close to it.
Today we are just the same, but like I said my wall was recently reassembled. What I didn't tell you is that this barrier is currently in shambles and the blueprints for a new one won't even be presented. Trials and tribulations in my case lead me to build a new wall, for myself. Misunderstandings and misconceptions caused most of the affliction. But I was winning with my newly built barricade. Well I thought I was winning. All is never ever ever fair in war. The war that I thought I needed to fight daily. Definitely wasn't necessary. I don't need to fight to feel what I do.
When I say recent I mean recent. Like within two weeks, I had a levee with feelings running over it, back up and running & then shot down. My heart feels too much on daily basis for him to begin to recondition a new love.
Our wall is amended. Far as I'm concerned I have put way too much into this to be broken. I will not love anyone as I do him.
And with that said
my Speak Your Mind Friday has been fulfilled (:
