Hamilton Isn't Home II

A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you

I am happy. This weekend was a great weekend and i had a blast at the concert with two of my oldest freinds. There are memories here, and i am still making them.. both with new and old friends that have had my back. but As with all things there comes a time where physically i am not needed to be in this city anymore.. and the depression and pain can only be blunted by things i do.. it's ever present.. and I don't feel that way elsewhere... my friends will stay my friends and they all want me to fucking happy.. so i need to decide exactly whats the best option for me at some point... it won't be guided by my heart or by anything down below.. but at this point I am looking at options and i'm pretty sure which option I'm likely to take.. having someone there that cares about me is just icing on the cake.. it'll be hard to say goodbye but then again I spent 15 years avoiding this place.. and there are no physical ties keeping me here.. there hasn't been for a very long time...i fought my war and lost.. all the reasons for being in Hamilton now ring hollow in my ears. i need to go back to the places where i am happy. i need to go to the places and the person i was meant to be, not this useless husk that has to fight his own mind to wake up every morning. I never wanted to move back here in the first place and the whole reason i returned in 08 was for options employment wise.. that was 11 years ago.. and my life for all intents and purposes as far as employment go, ended in April of 2011. that was 8 years ago.. I've had an option since at least 2012... if that door is open still i will probably take it... only one person keeps me tied to this city and he is my best friend bar non else.. but at some point when my responsibilities are likely done i will move on.. that has always been my behavior and my pattern.. but this time.. i truly feel.. I am going Home. I grew up[ here, my upbringing and past in this city has brought me nothing but pain.. it time to go where i spent the most productive and positive years of my life.. I have unfinished business up there anyhow.. and a new start that might turn into something. Time to say goodbye.. time to say goodbye to this graveyard of a city..

Current Mood: Insightful

Don’t walk in front of me… I may not follow
Don’t walk behind me… I may not lead
Walk beside me… just be my friend

  I want you in my life. Don't ever fucking confuse that for needing you in my life. Those two things are mutually exclusive to each other. I'm fine with my life and it's not my freind's and my social life that I'm jealous of. We both made our choices. My life has always been an insane carnival. You were merely an extended chapter. But if you think I'm going to sit at home being sad and depressed and shutting down because your not in my life. Your delusional. Then agian we already know this. If my life is going to be a sad comedy then I'll make it a metal massacre. I'm not sitting around waiting for anyone. The least of all you.  I sacrificed enough time on the altar of what might have been. I'm just enjoying the time that we have left. This way if it go out, it's on my own terms. I always told you that my funeral pyre will be a blaze of glory.. I just never told you when.  Now I'm gonna live and have adventures. Remain jealous. You know how ...

The Trees.

  I am really bothered by someone hurting my tree. I’m not sure the next step but that’s a living thing. I know that there is no healing when our things are still affected negatively by people. I’m not sure what the next step is but I know this is part and parcel of the entire thing and that we can’t heal when people hurt the things we care about.  I don’t have much but I do have a legacy to protect and there is a place where my son needs to feel safe, and I don’t think it will ever be that house agian. But once it was home, there are good memories there. There was love.  Part of that is the peace that was our tree. I’m sick of people damaging the things I love.  The world needs to be better and less selfish. I need peace in mine and her lives. Even if we are separate in our lives. She needs the peace and quiet I have in my life. Even more than I do.  And only one of us has it.

I dont know the next step. I don't claim to. I just know I'm working to rebuild a relationship that has been fractured for many years. That includes both of you. I am here. I will always be here, I have always been here that will never change  This weekend was epic and it felt right. I don't know what will happen but i do know that I am at peace with being civil and polite with your mom. It was nice to have a little adventure as a family. It felt right. It what was missing in our lives. Thank you.
