crying over lost time, not enough time, bad timing
I don�t usually type out my entries right into diaryland but here I am doing it. Tonight I talked to two people. During the first conversation I told Draukenrue that I want to go and get my life straight. That I can�t possibly take care of �Bucky� by myself on what I make. That I wanted to believe in �him� and all of that�.I explained it all. He didn�t judge me. He listened to everything I had to say about a very difficult decision I feel that has to be made. I can�t take my child with me unless I can take care of him. But how the fuck do I leave him? And no one can help me�.. But Draukenrue heard me out�. Maybe everyone can hear you out one time�maybe �he� can�t hear me anymore because he�s tuned me out to protect himself. I don�t know�
A half hour after I hung up��he� called me. I tried to open up and talk to him about �Bucky� and the entire decision that I�m trying to make. At one point he said that he�d never leave his child if he were to have one. Then I started to cry�. He told me to hang on and he made another work related phone call on the regular phone while I sat there listening. Then he came back and said �Well it�s 1 a.m. say goodnight.� Just like I suspected that he would but I sat there like some kind of fucking fool waiting to see if I was right during his entire catheter related conversation. I�m either so far gone or just so fucking pathetic that he can do anything he wants. Then when I said, �I�m mad �I�m upset with you�I was crying�.and look what you did.� He simply said, �you�re always crying.� God help me, but I hope that this conversation erases my feelings or changes him or something�. I can�t �. There are no words�. And I haven�t cried about anything for about 4 months. Instead when he asks me how I am I say ok. He�s certainly not very worthy of my tears and so I have forced myself to stop crying tonight�. It�s late�.I need to go to bed.
When I said I was mad he said, �No one is telling you what to do�.or that you can�t do what you want�you�re an adult�make your own decisions.� That wasn�t the fucking problem�.if I was in the room crying would he say �hold that thought I need to go sell some fucking catheters!� Probably�. Sad..
And to think I put aside most everything for him�always. Those days are over. I�ve got to get him out of my heart. I�ve got to. Dreams are fucked and they never come true and I�m so tired of this roller coaster ride that I just want lightening to hit and electrocute my soul into a fizzle of smoke that illuminates the sky for one beautiful moment�and then silence. Just silence�.
1 a.m. is not the time to cry�. I shoulda hung up on him when he was on that phone call�.but no�.pathetic fuck that I am�I waited. Waited�for someone that doesn�t have the time for me.

One other thing�he said �Its not that bad where you are is it? Can you think of 25 other people that have it worse than you? Maybe you need to stay where you are.�
And then....
Draukenrue: you still there?
PoeticaL: yes
Auto response from Draukenrue: :-P Sucker
Draukenrue: hiya sweetie :-)
Draukenrue: how are you doing?
PoeticaL: ;-(
Draukenrue: whats wrong?
PoeticaL: heyyyyyyy there you are
PoeticaL: can I tell you something?
Draukenrue: Yup yup :-)
PoeticaL: anything?
Draukenrue: Yes sure :-)
PoeticaL: can I tell you anything and its ok?
PoeticaL: just sat on the phone with �him�
PoeticaL: got upset and started to cry
Draukenrue: and?
PoeticaL: he put the phone down to make a business call
PoeticaL: left me there crying for 20 minutes
PoeticaL: while I listened to his phone call
PoeticaL: then came back and said "it's late say goodnight"
Draukenrue: what were you trying accomplish?
PoeticaL: me?
Draukenrue: yeah by talking to him
PoeticaL: well.....I started to cry cause he said "if it was me I'd never leave my kid for anything"
PoeticaL: same fucking thing I was talking to you about
PoeticaL: I just wanted to come tell you.....thank you for understanding where I"m coming from
PoeticaL: because if you weren't I would feel like a total fucking loser right now
PoeticaL: thank you for knowing what I'm thinking about.....understanding and not judging me
PoeticaL: thank you.... just thank you
Draukenrue: of course
PoeticaL: no I mean it
Draukenrue: i know my dear :-)
PoeticaL: something changed tonight
PoeticaL: something big
Draukenrue: what? talk to me :-)
PoeticaL: I care so much about him but it�s so obvious that he doesn't truly care about me
PoeticaL: that he doesn't understand where I'm coming from
PoeticaL: that he can't even begin to put himself in my shoes and "listen" to me
PoeticaL: you "listen" to me
PoeticaL: you're like one of the first people in so long to really "listen" to me
Draukenrue: Well its cause i care dear :-)
PoeticaL: well......I don't why you're doing it...but thank you for caring
Draukenrue: Well i do and you are stuck with it and me too :-)
PoeticaL: kewl
PoeticaL: by the way....I didn't call him
PoeticaL: he called me
PoeticaL: I didn't log onto paltalk cause I didn't want to talk to him
PoeticaL: the more I try to stay away....the more he gets ahold of me
PoeticaL: and yet.....i cry.....he puts the phone down
PoeticaL: god help me....but I already know that if I cryed all over you....you'd never do that to me
PoeticaL: I already sense something really awesome about you
PoeticaL: about the way we can talk
Draukenrue: well i enjoy you :-)
PoeticaL: ditto
PoeticaL: know what?
PoeticaL: he doesn't even have a kid...so how the fuck does he know what he would or wouldn't do?
PoeticaL: see...now you're doing it
PoeticaL: maybe everyone's the same
PoeticaL: maybe I need to go straighten out my life before anyone can be there for me
Draukenrue: NO! Sorry i was talking to Chablis
PoeticaL: *shrugs*
PoeticaL: its ok
Draukenrue: I was not ignoring you it was about our situation here
PoeticaL: its ok
PoeticaL: i'm just upset
Draukenrue: I am not like him or anyone else i am James and no one else honey
PoeticaL: you didn't upset me
Draukenrue: Well i dont want you making rash decisions and cutting me out of your life
Draukenrue: it would honestly break my heart :-(
PoeticaL: why?
Draukenrue: cause if you decide to stay there and just leave me behind and not consider something special between us and forget what could be, it would hurt :-(
PoeticaL: listen....I'm not upset with you
PoeticaL: I'm more upset that anyone can tell me they care about me but listen to me cry and put the phone down
PoeticaL: its just another slice in my belief that love exists
Draukenrue: meaning what dear?
Draukenrue: love exits where?
PoeticaL: just.....like I told you earlier.....the minute I admit someone matters to me they somehow make me sorry that they do
PoeticaL: that love exists anywhere
Draukenrue: Have i done that?
PoeticaL: no.....I'm sorry...its so not you
Draukenrue: You have given me enough chances to say it, BUT have i? mmmmm Nope :-)
PoeticaL: I'm really sorry
Draukenrue: Well fuck them and concentrate on me then :-)
PoeticaL: :-)not a bad idea
Draukenrue: never be sorry dear :-)
Draukenrue: I care about you and the rest can fuck off and die :-)
PoeticaL: sounds like a good idea
Draukenrue: Of coure it is :-) I thunk it up *winks*
PoeticaL: thanks for letting me vent
PoeticaL: its like I'm so destroyed right now
PoeticaL: the last year.....so full of bad things
PoeticaL: I'm so ready to smile again...laugh again...
Draukenrue: well i do remember you were doing that earlier :-)
PoeticaL: yes I was
PoeticaL: and you know what?
Draukenrue: and i wonder WHO you were talking to? *winks*
Draukenrue: what do i know?
PoeticaL: I came to you earlier on here
PoeticaL: remember?
PoeticaL: I came looking for you
PoeticaL: I didn't go to him
Draukenrue: and i loved it :-)
PoeticaL: I ignored him
PoeticaL: he said "I tried to call you and it was busy" and I said "yeah I was on the phone"
Draukenrue: hehe poor bastard :-)
PoeticaL: lol
PoeticaL: you got me laughin over here now
PoeticaL: I don't want you to feel like your in a competition
PoeticaL: i want you to understand that I've been so lost....just wanting someone to talk to...someone that could understand me
Draukenrue: Well i am the light at the end of your dark tunnel :-)
PoeticaL: you're very sweet
