TYING UP,

LOOSE ENDS THIS EVENING.
SO BITTERSWEET, BUT I FEEL RELIEVED NOW.

SO TELL ME,

ARE YOU BEGINNING TO LOVE THE HATE IN WHICH YOU HOLD SO DEARLY?
I WATCH YOU,
YOU CRADLE IT, FEED IT.
YOU TREAT IT BETTER THAN YOU EVER TREATED ME.
FUNNY HOW THINGS WORK, ISN'T IT.
I KNOW YOU LIKE THE BACK OF MY HAND,
STOP ACTING LIKE YOUR INVINCIBLE.


I just finished the book White Oleander yesterday, I think it's one of my favorites. It's written beautifully, here's a quote from it,
"Don't attach yourself to anyone who shows you the least bit of attention because you're lonely. Loneliness is the human condition. No one is ever going to fill that space. The best you can do is know yourself... know what you want. "
