Imagery
18.11.17
I thought I knew what love was. I could rewind into memories and entangle the feelings of love from my sadden past relationship. It felt so beautiful and free. When I went to bed beside him, everything was so peaceful. I would rest at night with no worry, knowing that life would play out nicely. I was safe in his arms and that he would protect every part of me. That was not so. I relied on him to protect me, but I should have been the one to guard myself - my heart.Â
I’m not hurt anymore. I think I’ve done a good job to move past all the pain and love we had. However, I am in quite a depression rut. I feel like I need to be high all the time. Because I’m not high off of life, I turn to personal intoxication. I have no motivation and the insomnia is real. I realize that it is really bad. I just really want to rest easy again.
I use to fall asleep with so much hope for my future. I would think of a perfect version of myself and predict the looks of my family. After my ex and I split, I no longer see that image, even with a blank face of an unknown soulmate(?). This keeps me up at night. That comfort is gone from me. The comfort that let’s me drift into dream smoothly. The uneasiness makes me wonder if I will love again. Am I good enough to be loved? Do these lack of imagery mean something deeper? Will I never get married and have kids? Will I die before my lifetime goals are achieved? Am I so empty right this moment, that I can never have those feelings of care, comfort, peace and love again? This will pass.
