I don't know why, but everynight I stay up late. Wondering, pondering, an internal debate. Who am I and what do I want? My love is here, but that's not enough. She fills me and wants me to be with her, but I leave her night after night alone, in bed alone. All I have to do is go, leave, move right now, but I'm stuck here, how? How can I stay when she is so close? How can my heart not let her in? The pain that resides and stays by my side I thought I left. Long ago in a life that's past. These feelings, these hurts I thought I healed, only come back, they never yield. To be filled with joy is my only desire, yet it's in the bed waiting. Peace, solace, comfort, these I can have. If only my heart and my head would just let me free. The pain is faint but it still exists. I brought myself back from the brink of insanity and still feel its pull. It's a friend of mine that just won't leave. I beg, ask, and even plead. It's all I knew at one point. That is until you set me free. Free? That I should truly be, yet this nagging feeling still tugs at me. Do you hear my words? Do you know what I say? Of course not. I never told you. Yet I told you everything. You already know. But if I died tonight, what would you say? Did you every really know me? Did you know that my heart only wants to help? To save, to cure all the hurt. I see so many in so much pain. I've been there, I've heard the voices, I felt the madness. But I came back, to you. I love you my darling wife, but I don't know why I can not commit my WHOLE self to you. Maybe it's because I don't even know my whole self. I strive every night with these thoughts of mine, trying and thinking, "What must I find?" I can't give up my endless search, until my heart is warm and soft again. To be the little boy that grew up to fast and let him live his life. That's all I want. I want the innoncence, but that was stolen from me. Not by you, but by the world. Screw the world, it does not know love. Only the people in the world who receive from above. My self is to be alone, my being is to want. Want with you. Good night my love. I shall be with you soon.

If you wish just to allieviate yourself and don't want anyone to respond, just say so at the end of your post and we shall be respectful to your wishes. Sometimes, things just need to be said, and others have to know. Community, communication, friendship, it's what keeps any of us sane in this crazy world. I lived in mental isolation for 6 years straight in which the environment I was in was a tiny 8 by 10 foot room that I stayed in 20 hours a day. Mentally I withdrew and quite literally almost went insane. I don't mind to say such things, because if I don't then I deny that it every happened, and believe me, IT DID HAPPEN! To breathe deep and talk is healing. I want to encourage that type of healing, whenever you are ready. It's hard to face the pain, the memories, and the hurt, but to do so allows us to grow. At least I thought so, anymore I seem to be stuck in the same place. Not in the physical enviroment, but mentally I seem to be withdrawing. That's why it is good for me to come here and chat with intelligent, funny, witty, and most of all caring people.

My stomach hurts. Chinese food and too much beer... not a good combo for a farm boy...

Too true. Less food, more beer ;)

(Take that advice seriously and I will be over to trample it out of you -)

I've always wanted to make gin in my bathtub. And run rum in the hills of Georgia in a souped up car...

My friend, that is a dream I think we should all aspire to achieve.
 
I have a small dream ... a simple dream ... a quiet, gentle little dream.

All I want is peace on earth.

It will be achieved be everyone worshipping me.

They will be too busy fulfilling my every whim to make war on each other.

Is that too much to ask?
