sinking feeling

  • Dec. 1st, 2009 at 1:12 AM
the sea just keeps going


You're the direction I follow to get home, when I feel like I can't go on, you tell me to go. And it's like I can't feel a thing without you around. And don't mind me if I get weak in the knees, cause you have that effect on me... You do.

Everything you say, every time we kiss I can't think straight, but I'm okay. And I can't think of anybody else who I hate to miss as much as I hate missing you. So please give me your hand. So please give me a lesson on how to steal, steal the heart as fast as you stole mine. I can't think of anybody else who I hate to miss as much as I hate missing you..... <3

Ian:I have one more thing to say.
Me: What?
Ian: You're beautiful Nicole... Life needs time to happen and someone will come sweep you off your feet just don't look so hard... Make him come to you not the other way around.
Me: I'm going to continue to argue against that... Because I'll never agree.
Ian: This isn't finished but... You do realize I know you better than you think.

But Dear God do I wish it were him sweeping me off of my feet. I hate being so irrevocably in love with a person that doesn't feel the same. A person that is looking for love everywhere but right in front of him. A person who doesn't realize that there isn't possibly any other person in this world better for him than I. I'm so irrevocably in love that I've let go of everything else that's made me happy and hopelessly devoted my time to him. And now I'm left with nothing.

i used to have a systematic way of carrying out my day. hit the snooze button twice and wake up just in time to preheat my car and jump in the shower. ipod is put on shuffle during my one hour drive to school. go to first class, normally skip the rest to go to ian's house to sit on the floor for an hour playing with his dogs while we wait for a batch of our favorite kind of cupcakes to bake in the oven. its a race to choose the best one, and i hang around long enough for chelsea to leave and for ian and i to plop onto seperate couches, each with a dog on our lap, and watch movies. friday, saturday, sunday...waitressing. it was a schedule i got so used to, and the i've grown to be familiar to ian's house and his character. but now i sleep in late for my 9 am's and only attend my afternoon classes, my daily commute has been cut to thirty minutes because recently my foot's gotten heavier. and i haven't gone to ian's in over a week. i miss rufus and poutin, and him giving me  piggy back rides and going to parties on the weekends. i miss him. i hate how much influence he's made on me and how much i've incorporated him into my life. i hate how my focus has been changed and we don't see eye to eye. i wishhhh.

Yeah he's a looker, but I really think it's guts that matter most. I displayed them for you, strewn out about from coast to coast.

Me: Can I drop out of college now and do what I want pleaseee?
You: Go for it .
Me: There are other things I'd rather be doing, but what I want can wait.
You: What do you want?
Me: I want to learn how to sail and get my own boat, and just live on it and go from port to port and take pictures of the world.
You: Interesting.
Me: Kindof.
You: Well, I think it is.
Me: Well I definetely think so too, but its just..out there. And probably not going to happen until after I grow old.
You: Well grow old faster.

You make me smile like the sun, fall out of bed, sing like bird, dizzy in my head, spin like a record crazy on a Sunday night. You make me dance like a fool, forget how to breathe, shine like gold, buzz like a bee, just the thought of you can drive me wild. Oh, you make me smile. I don't know how I lived without you, cause everytime that I get around you, I see the best of me inside your eyes. :)

i suddenly realized how sad i am that i don't drive only four minutes to get to school to see warren's skeptical face and immediately merge into a room with running water, the smell of sulfur and an enlarger waiting to see what i'll create next.

i've found that one moment of pure bliss i've been looking for. after hours of waitressing and anticipating, i drive a handful of miles, hug a couple of strangers and lean on a few cars and finally in the passenger seat of a car who's color matches my eyes. The road ahead of me is clearly winding but i watch the gas gauge move up into 80 mph and I'm not clutching the side of my seat, no, I'm absolutely thrilled. I'm secretly proud of myself how much I've changed and grown. I've met new friends and they've changed me in the absolute best way. The ride ends at an unfamiliar park, barely lit. i learned i can't seesaw, my balance is terrible, jungle gyms are dangerous, my kids will be deformed, and that i have made a great great new friend. i'm thrilled. i'm not the person i thought i'd be. i've gone on such a huge journey in just three months. my new friends have molded me into a better person than i have before.this moment at the park was so perfect and happy. i couldn't stand straight on the balance beam worth a damn but i was laughing and happy and forgot about every other thing that could be on my mind. it was only me and my friend and the night. we can act like we're five and it's great. i didn't think i'd find myself this happy.

suga how'd you get so fly

call me crazy but i love the way you were designed
a smile like yours in this world is difficult to find
don't second guess you spend every minute on my mind
because since i've met you my priorities are re aligned

with this new beginning i have no need to rewind
i can move on, leave those sad days behind
my once lonely heart has been reassigned
to a new pair of blue eyes so incredibly kind

i've got my sleeves rolled up and books laid out. as if i'm really going to study. facebook is the devil and so is caffiene. it truly surprises me how i can stay up so late at night, but accomplish nearly nothing. it also surprises me that i've maintained such a good grade point average. that proves to people who don't believe that there IS a God. plus many other things. the good outweighs the bad and if i had to exlude the low moments, i would tell you that life is great. optimism, je t'aime.

Doing everything by halves, you got a real flair with excuses. Meeting someone at the bar, where loose ends still have uses. It's complicated. This time I think it could be triangulated, it could be just what we need. So what you say, we give it up and walk away? We're overrated, anyway. We're kissing without kissing, we've got it down to a fine art. Love's supposed to keep you young and frisky, but we grew up and wide apart. Not now, not ever, no… it's never a good time. How will the good times ever roll on? Comparing photos then and now, now and then. Just wondering… where it all went wrong.

I'll tell you flat out, it hurts so much to think of this. So, from my thoughts I will exclude the very thing that I hate more than everything is the way I'm powerless to dictate my own moods. I've thrown away so many things that could've been much more, and I just pray my problems go away if they're ignored. But that's not the way it works. When I go down, I go down hard. And I take everything I've learned and teach myself some disregard. When I go down, it hurts to hit the bottom. And of the things that got me there, I think, if only I had fought them. If and when I can clear myself of this clouded mind I'll watch myself settle down into a place where peace can search me out and find that I'm so ready to be found.

I've thrown away the hope I had in friendships. I've thrown away so many things that could have been much more. I've thrown away the secret to find an end to this. Any control I thought I had just slips right through my hands; while my ever-present conscience shakes its head and reprimands me. Then and there, I confess, I'll blame all this on my selfishness. Yet you love me, and that consumes me. And I'll stand up again, and do so willingly. You give me hope, and hope it gives me life. You touch my heavy heart, and when you do you make it light. As I exhale, I hear your voice. And I answer you, though I hardly make a noise. And from my lips the words I choose to say seem pathetic, but it's fallen man's praise. Because I love you. Oh God, I love you. And life is now worth living if only because of you. And when they say that I'm dead and gone, it won't be further from the truth.

When I go down, I lift my eyes to you. I won't look very far cause you'll be there with open arms to lift me up again.

1. Every time I see the big dipper,
2. When I encounter a crashing wave,
3. When I eat chocolate ice cream,
4. When my car smells,
5. When my hair is curled,
6. Whenever I have to bleach my white shorts
7. When I hear "Crash Into Me," and 22594870 other songs because everything reminds me of you,
8. When I dance to G.Love or drive with my windows down to "Float On,"
9. Every day that your brother drives your truck past me with the VMI sticker on the back window,
10. When I think of where all my time went this summer,
11. When I drink mountain dew,
12.  On the days that I take Seaside Road to get home,
13. When I sit on the dock at Tower Hill and just cry,
14. Whenever I hear someone say "Faggot Bitch,"
15. Everytime someone mentions the Marine Corps
16. When I'm in Biology and have nothing better to do,
17. When I smile and see the scar on my bottom lip,
18. When I'm drunk,
19. When I twist the ring on my finger, and
20. When I say  or hear the words, "wonderful" or "ridiculous,"
21. Every time I look at my eyes and remember that they look just like yours...

I think of you.

i've come to the conclusion that i'm really where i need to be.
sitting on railroad tracks watching the sunset with a camera in hand...i couldn't be any more relieved.
