Okay. So I don't know where I'm going to go with this, but we'll see what happens.
For the longest time, I've wanted to be someone's "go to" guy, the one who everyone just wants to talk to and listen. I've wanted to have something specifically directed at me. I've wanted to be somebody's someone. I've wanted to be somebody I'm not. I've wanted to be somebody I am.
And sometimes, I've just wanted to be somebody.
Sometimes I just wish I could have somebody who I could tell everything too. I've wanted to throw everything out there, and not be judged for it. But there's something that holds me back, something that scares me like nothing else.
I'm scared of losing the people closest to me. I'm scared of losing the few people who I trust.
I think that's what scares me the most about the future. Something about leaving all my highschool friends and moving away, well, it just isn't okay with me. It's taken me nearly four years to establish relationships with people that I don't want to leave it all behind, just to have to start over again. I don't like to think that my life is just one big cycle and every four or so years, it goes "let's do it all over again!" Yeah, I'm not ready for life yet.
I didn't want this to be another post how I'm not ready for my future, so I'm done with that.
Do dreams give some sort of hint towards the future?
Do you remember your dreams?
Do you dream?
I'd like to think that my dreams tell me things. Maybe something about someone, or about my future, or destiny.
Damn. There I go with the future thing again.
Do you believe in destiny?
I know I do. I think there's just too many things that have happened so far in my life for me not to believe in it. Sometimes I've wondered if I've made the right decisions in waiting for destiny to happen. I mean, I've had opportunities that I've either missed or let go, because I felt that something good was bound to happen soon. I sure hope that it pays off.
"You always want what you can't have" So what happens when you do finally get what you can't have? Or does it not work that way?
I hope it works that way. And I hope it works.
The old box full of polaroids sits on my shelf
With the pictures of the first time we took the city by ourselves
And the whole ride home
We played "Konstantine"
And I walked you to your doorstep
And you kissed me in the rain, my lucky day
I still spell konfusion with a "k"
Success Story - Holiday Parade
It's true, I still do spell konfusion with a "k"
You seem so afraid, afraid you'll regret
Regret getting closer and connected to me
And I feel like that too but I'm scared
Scared you'll leave while you feel you can
So I'll just wait and see
So I'll just wait and see and see
Let our eyes say words we'll leave unspoken
When we're trying to be careful
And words can be so confusing
When we're trying to be careful
But not too careful...
Fear, it has its place folded in squares
Squarely tucked in the back pocket of our minds
And yes, it's reckless to act but pointless to decide
Just let your world collide with mine
Let's not wait and see
Let our eyes say words we'll leave unspoken
When we're trying to be careful
And words can be so confusing
When we're trying to be careful
But not too careful...
What's the average number of times people feel this way in a lifetime?
Let's not waste more time
Let our eyes say words we'll leave unspoken
When we're trying to be careful
And words can be so confusing
When we're trying to be careful
But not too careful...

i cant count on destiny.
nice last song.
"It's taken me nearly four years to establish relationships with people that I don't want to leave it all behind, just to have to start over again. I don't like to think that my life is just one big cycle and every four or so years, it goes "let's do it all over again!""
-i feel that exact way sometimes. except that going into highschool, i pretty much knew no one. unless you count 5 guys who were nothing like me. and i think how long it took me to get here, and how i'm just going to have to do the exact same thing all over again. and it just seems completely exhausting.
-but then other times, i'm like screw it, i want to start over. i want a new start and i want to get away from all these people. i want to make new relationships, even if it's going to take me awhile to solidfy them.
i flip between those two. depends on the day i guess.
i'm going go with somewhere inbetween kathleen and you, brent.
There are certain relationships that i don't want to leave behind and i'm going to do my best not to. But i am dying to get out there and see new things, meet new people etc etc . . do the future thing.
i spell confusion with four letters.
and this part of life is the part i hate most. uprooting, moving on, forgetting, restarting.
I'm happy cause you guys are here. So never tell me to leave, never tell me lets NOT hang out, NEVER tell me your sick of me EVER cause we're only all here for:
10 months, 26 days, 1 hr, 30 sec,
then the new age begins
oh good.
now i'm worried.
thanks abram...thanks for that.
man, don't worry about the whole losing friends thing. if anything, i'd advise not moving in with a bunch of friends, one thing i wish i hadn't done. if your friends are true, then trust me, you'll still see plenty of them. i know i do.
oh man, the dreams i've been having. you wouldn't believe me if i told you...
you and your delete button. or save draft button....
