As i look back at the many posts which i have poured much of what i dare not to say out loud, the pain flows again. The pain not of which is love lost but is the emptiness. The omnipresent void opens again. To many whom read my the shit i post here may be surprised to see a totally different side of me.
Normally, when i am out doing stuff, its not there. I can be a happy go lucky person without a care in the world. Yet when it comes down to reflecting when i am alone for a long time, it comes back. Many may ask, yeah yeah, just go out lar. To me, i kinda have to face this but i admit i do not know how and i am doing rather badly.
It reminds me of the times i treasured when i was in secondary school. The friends i hold dear. The bonds of friendship which i dare not say i believe in anymore. Over time, many of them have been worn thin. Some severed and gone. But mostly lost. How this is possible? Why is it possible? Carefully thinking, the bonds have faded but only one thing has stood by me over all this time and i am not proud of it at all. I am disappointed with myself and disgusted at the lack of will power but at the same time, its what i have relied on for ever so long. Its been there through the good times, the bad, the times when i experienced joy. Pure joy. The times when the showers of tears just refused to end. Everytime i rely on that, i manage to kill myself a little more each time. Reducing the gift of life blessed by god to us. I can imagine many sniggering lyk hey, are you sure you are ashamed by it? My answer to you deep down is yes. Why is it? Because i have nothing else i can say to back up the my heart is weak. The phrase goes "a chain is only as strong as its weakest link."
I have long realised that the jess i loved is no longer here. But more of all, why is it the emptyness seems to spawn? I dare to say now that i no longer love her. That i truely truely don't. Many still up to now ask why its not possible to just try again. I dare not walk down that road. Maybe its just like army. Once you clear it, you'll never wanna go through it again. The main factors are probably the serenity, the support, love?, the times spent, etc etc.. I do believe that i do have a relatively good preception on love now. From the scripture, 1 corinthians 1-13,
1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.
2And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
3And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
4Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;
6does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;
7bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.
9For we know in part and we prophesy in part.
10But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.
11When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.
13And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
using new kings james version but i think that normal kings james version is probably much better. Anyway, back to where i was. My perception was probably just as the secondary colours are to the primary colours.
After typing and typing, my train of thought is once again severed by the disturbances around. I know for a fact that in time, i will find the one whom i will spend the rest of my life with and say the words,
To have and to hold, from this day forward, For better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, In sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, Till death do us part. but as of now, i need to take a smoke.
