Christmas Evil II

Christmas is such a time of struggle anyway, crammed with busy and hurry and the expectation that you will be joyful, no matter what. Then, if you’re like me, when you just sit quietly, just be, and let yourself feel what you feel, the guilt creeps in. Because you’re alive and the world is big, and you should be feeling some freakin’ Christmas spirit..

I wonder why I cling to my Windsorite roots so much, there is a reason, almost ten years removed it's still the only place I've truly known peace and any real presence of self, I defined myself, by myself up there. Everywhere else has never been my decision. I'm frustrated here, I'm frustrated by the fact that all I do here is wander thru shadows and remember who I used to be, and what I've become, I made a choice, regardless of anything, the war, family, loved ones, I came back for a reason, and that reason will never ring hollow, I just wish that there was more to define me in the last ten years, this journeyman shit was supposed to end when I was 20, now I'm nine months away from forty and I still have nothing and don't know where I'm going. I only know that as long as I'm able I'll stay, I'll stand, I'll fight, but some days the darkness and the anger consumes and I don't see brightness and light, I only see hate and blood red anger, I have my reasons and the are justified, but even with all the good in my life, and all the good I do and all the good I could be doing, my defining moments for the time being were made by another out of anger, out of hate, I will never know why, but at least when it comes to her I know where I stand, I wish it was as easy to say the same about him.

I need to make plans and end the game whatever that is going to be, but some things that have always been in the back of my mind these last lonely years maybe they need to come to the forefront rather than me waiting for things to happen, it's chess still, maybe a stronger offence is needed. I need to get off my fucking ass and stop thinking defensively in this war, it's time to attack, I can be as cold and bloodthirsty as her, maybe now is the time to show that side of me, this has to end and soon, by her hand or mine, I'm fucking sick of waiting, I'm fucking sick of fighting.

The worst time is when I am alone at home with my thoughts, waiting, expecting an end, some absolution that never fucking comes. All I can be is angry and stomp around old haunting grounds that ceased to be mine two decades ago. I chose to leave my life here for a reason, the same reason I chose to come back, I look in my rear view mirrors and wonder was it fucking worth it, was the sacrifice worth it, in my heart I will always know the true answer, in my mind questions linger and the darkness and shadows overwhelm. I don't know the next step I only know the path behind, I only know that the battle will likely never truly be over and I may never be able to look past this battle, this war. It's a twisted reflection of who I wanted to be, who I am, a reflection of everyone that's poisoned my life, not that I have ever been truly innocent, no I would never claim that, but I fight only for the one that is, I don't care how much you have tried to corrupt him, my darkness is not his, it will never be his. I fight in the hopes that one day I can prove that to be the truth. If he hates me so be it, but I won't be alone in his hatred, I promise you that, I always have. He will have the opportunity to decide for himself, something you have never given him. Something I always will.

i shouldn't be feeling this dark at the holiday season again, but i am and i have to fucking deal with it so I will and i shall enjoy the things that I do have, it's just so fucking frustrating.

Current Mood: Frustrated.

There is at Christmas time a great deal of hypocrisy, honourable hypocrisy, hypocrisy undertaken pour le bon motif, c'est entendu, but nevertheless hypocrisy!

The month of December isn’t magical because it sparkles. It’s magical because it changes people’s hearts … at least momentarily.

Back to the job search i go... not really anything to do right now but play turtles smash up and watch tv so i decided to wander downtown and look for a job. I am feeling really good at the moment and trying to ride this positive feeling as long as it lasts and not let anything get me down. Current Mood: Positive. Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after another.

I hate everyone. I just pretend I don’t because I’m chasing this false inner peace, thats being constantly eroded by outsiders. I am happy, I was at peace. But I do see my country and more importantly my city for what it’s for and I’m getting angry again. Maybe I do need to be angry. Maybe I do need to rebel. Maybe I do need to speak out despite the fact that it can be used against me and hurt those I love. Nothing fucking new to me. This apathy has gotten me nowhere, this trying to be at peace was working but maybe I need to be angry, maybe I need to rail agianst the things that once were right have now went wrong. This isn’t a world I want my child growing up in, and he’s grown. But this isn’t the world I promised him. This is something else.  This city wants to pick a fight with me? Cool, I know what busybody bitch it is. Don’t think I will tolerate any threats to those that I care for or myself. You want to fucking start a war? Maybe it’s time for me to be angry again.

Someone Like You.

I know there are aspects of me, my personality and my life that you still like. It’s why you had my child and no one else’s. But I don’t colour within the lines enough for you to settle down with. That’s been acknowledged for two fucking decades. He’s an adult. I don’t need to answer to anyone anymore in my life. I wasted years fighting you when I should have been fixing you. But those moments are over.  All of our moments are over.  I don’t even need to be angry. I just need to be. You and I are toxic. I’m better off without you in my life. It’s a little less toxic when I’m the only one on the boat. Only the captain goes down with the ship. I’ve always known i would die alone anyhow. No family, no friend’s, no real accomplishments to my life. I wrote that line almost 30 years ago. Self fulfilling prophecy. At least that way when I implode no one gets hurts.  I was a fool to think otherwise. I’ve left too much damage in my path. I just want to be happy and at peace whatev...
