Lone Digger

October 18th, 2016



I guess I’ll start off with something that I might keep in mind always or I might forget. So this will be a nice reminder. I normally write when I’m wrought with emotion. Usually that means it’s negative emotion. But I’m sure if I go back to some of the previous things I wrote that might not be the case.
I just thought to myself, “Perhaps I should write down some more positive things?”
I do write positive things all the time. I say and do positive things all the time. I share those moments with people. I share them with my friends. I share them on social media. As cliché and edgy as it’ll sound, those are the parts that I let people see. That’s what I share with people. To say that I should write more positive things makes it feel like I don’t write anything positive. I could probably stand to write out my own private, positive thoughts, but I do enjoy what I share.
That comes back to this piece of work.
Here I am, at work. Another late night/early morning where the flow of time has become a haze. I sit in near silence except for faceless clients that call for assistance. Otherwise it’s a few messages I can shoot out to people but then even that usually stops around 2am. So then it’s just me and silence in a small cube for the next 4.5 hours. It’s becoming maddening.
There are a couple of buffers that prevent me from going mad however.
Beth and Phyll. I may not see them as often as either of them would like (assuming they care) but I don’t think I could go this alone at this point in my life. At certain other times, I might have been able to. But not now. I’d most likely have snapped by now.
There’s also my weekly visits to Megan. We often just sleep and drink, but even then, I enjoy her company. Her smile is radiating and I love the sound of her laughter. The way her face expresses itself. When she sleeps and she’s curled up is precious. I do like her very much. I adore her. I’m falling for her. But I have no idea what we’re doing.
We both like each other very much. We’ve admitted that much. But I think both of us have such little time and so many issues with ourselves it’s hard to see us with another person. Maybe that’s it. Maybe I’m projecting. Maybe I’m delusional as I have been so many times. I’m uncertain. Which is what it usually comes down to. But I thought that was fine until I made the mistake of having a hookup with someone who I’ve even written about before.
I had her over at my house. We had a couple glasses of wine and we let it get to our heads, her more so than me surely. Even though I will get to everything that happened, the moment I want to write about and immortalize in writing is the one thing that kills me inside whenever I think about it. Just the smallest moment that makes my heart sink whenever it pops into my head.
As I spoke to her, I ran my hand across her cheek. For a moment, she held it there. She held it there and pressed it closer to her face; it was so warm. Then when my thumb rubbed by the side of her lips she lightly bit it. There was just something so intimate about that moment. Perhaps she was just trying to be sexy. Maybe she was trying to relax me. Regardless, I knew that this was most likely going to be a one time thing.
Even so, that one moment made me yearn for intimate companionship. She doesn’t enjoying making out or kissing. I do. Despite that missing, I felt a longing for it. I just miss being able to physically connect with someone on an emotional level. That’s what I miss most.
Between not being able to see people who I used to be able to hold dearly in my life and not being able to have someone who can share with me in physical intimacy and hold me dearly is taking its toll on me. If you’re reading this (almost certainly without permission unless it’s me myself) I’m not going to take my life into my hands. Too many depend on me. Too many need me. I could not. But as the days go by, as the stress piles, as I lose sleep, I can feel the rope of my life start to fray and the strands break. Once that rope snaps and I reach the end, I guess we’ll just have to see how that goes.
Until then, I’ll just have to hold on to this rope of life.

[Continued the next day]
I read back to a previous post where I did mention the girl by name: Sarah. I feel so weird; hung up on her. I’m not sure if I’m hung up on her though at this point or just the idea of her. Reading back, it looks like the biting is something I enjoyed even for that one moment. When she nibbled on my hand. Because of course that’s a thing.
Not to mention the scumbaggery from the week previous. I’m always tangled up with Keni for some reason. We just can’t seem to keep our hands off of each other. There’s just some kind of bond between us that I wish I could be a decent person and shake.
Yet that night ended up with her straddling me and us dry humping, starving for each other’s flesh. I, of course, initiated all of this. The shining example of loneliness, desperation, and apathy for any who wasn’t me. I’m such a deplorable person. I’m just a mess. No matter what I try to say to myself or what I do for other people. It’s all to hide that at the end of the day, curled up, I’m just a slave to my own libido.
I lack self-control and crave self-satisfaction.
