Sep. 24th, 2006 05:12 pmEver feel like you're in a book or a television show or a movie or a play? Or somewhere and somewhen that doesn't really matter at all because it's not real? See I wake up and I narrate my own life. I can't help it. I can't stop it. I cut myself off when I catch myself doing it because it's not real. It's just me playing at life and thinking well what if that or what is this or wouldn't that be nice. None of those things do me much good in the end, you see. None of them matter. I can make up one life and play it all out in my head. I can have whole conversations with people. I can be anywhere and anyone I want to be. And I say when it ends. And I control the actions of the players in my world.
The world around me doesn't work like that. The players never say what I think they'll say. The story doesn't end just because I can't take anymore. It marches on and on and on. It's not my head. It's not mine. It's not just mine. I have to share it with all the rest of you, and you have no puppet strings for me to pull. And you have no easy answers for me. And you confound me by saying things I never think of.
And I never know how I seem to you. I can't control the way you look at me, think about me. I can't control you. People scare me. Everything you do and don't do and say and don't say or just say to me and no one else.
I'm rambling. I'm avoiding.
I said I'd tell him today. I said I would.
I will I will I will I will I will I will.
