i met a guy who told me that a spider goddess weaved him into existence, a deal he made to get to be....the details he obscured from me....
he cared about violence, wealth, power, and sex
he wanted me to be a part of his world, but narcissitically he wanted me for me but needed me to be things and do things that required me to abandon and forsake myself. he wanted me to lose myself. to live for him. to live with him.
i think of times I've done the same. needed someone to be something other than they were. the difference is i let go. where as they held on. both feel wrong.
when you're already crossed the line of who you are, and they ask you to venture further away from yourself,,, for what feels like an unreturnable distance from yourself is still not enough for them. whats the point of being at all if i have to be so far away from me. what gets to live then? if not me?
somwthing else....using my body.
he. wanted to know things. he asked questions and then acted like he already knew the answers. bored with the responses he was begging for. being so manipulative it just came off as a confusion. i could feel him wanting me to be confused, i didnt see him leading me down a ladder further into the depths of confusion he wanted to coax me down into. but something was holding me keeping me, so in reality it was just him. going lower and lower and lower. he was pulling me further and further into his life, seeking to trap me. but i exist within the palm of Love's hand, firmly planted, rooted, attached. i am not just being carried, not much different from a tree carrying its branches. and though the winds and storms may blow and whip us around, we havent truly gone anywhere. still. together.
he kept talking about believing in a higher power but in hindsight i realize he was so ambiguous and vague with his wording, im unsure WHO he was referring to as this power he believed in.
He tried to control me trap me, but Love set me free. he tried to make me feel bad for walking away from the pain he had in store for me....dont they all? try to reverse psychology guilt you into staying. try to make you feel like you're doing a bad thing by walking away from badness. for they dont stop being bad and doing bad once you realize. they simply continue and hope you doubt they're awfulness could be true. that they are still doing it to you even after you knew. surely not? they push you to think. confusion they cloud over your clarity. they know you are quicker to think there must be something wrong with your mind than their heart. but no my dear their heart is rotten. and you are not bad for seeing badness. but they want you to think that. they hope they can trap you in that mentality and doubt and worry for years, decades....another layer they keep you trapped behind....wasting your time....hoping that you will get to the end of your life before you realize the truth. stealing time away from you. truth away from you. they are thieves and deceivers, and they come for all true believers.
