It’s amazing the way the brain works
Bringing you back & forth
From one experience to another
It’s like a slow motion movie
Walking you through all the things randomly
Pointing out happy & sad moments
Sometimes in succession
Others flash like your brain is having turrets
Blasting out certain events that replay & my brain rushes the emotions out of control
I used to revisit some past events & pay no mind
It’s like I was sociopathic & emotions were irrelevant
passing go & not needing to collect 200 dollahs
But at this point in my life everything effects me so hard its overwhelming
It’s like my heart is a runaway freight train
Every crack is like the San Andre’s fault line
I’m just sick of the replaying all the events of what he did to hurt me & what I have done to hurt him
I’ve struggled with thoughts of keeping him in my life regardless of the relationship
But the problem with that is he does things that cross the line
He acts & sends things that are inappropriate
Pretending like the intent isn’t intrusive & borderline deceptive to the relationship he’s in
I shouldn’t have to feel like I need screenshots to defend my position
Or to prove that I’m keeping my actions above board
Believe me, there are times that I wanted to flex & violate but I have not
This has been a never ending cycle
We talk, We argue then We share silence
After. Bit of time We both find something funny or reach out
& the cycle starts all over again
This has gone on for so long that it’s become normal
We have never we r had boundries
Never had a need to
We both have unintentionally & intentionally sabotaged relationships
All to the detent of other relationships We both have attempted to make successful
I guess when you have had this healthy/unhealthy
Subtlety toxic relationship
It is the common place normal
We reference movies that resemble how we are
There are three in particular
What Dreams May Come, The Story of Us, Its Complicated
I guess I always thought we’d be around each other, cordially or otherwise
We have always been a source of support for each other no matter what
This accident has just changed him
I know people evolve but he’s no longer pleasant
One of my emotional battles is coping with his abrupt personality shift
Reaction time is off
Conversation content always becomes inappropriate
& he takes absolutely no responsibility or accountability
I guess I just never thought he’d choose to move away from us all
Be rid of us all like a checklist of things to trash & disregard
I never expected to hear that everything about Our history was “Terrible”
The reality is that I’m feeling like I am in the process of the 7 stages of growing
I never thought I’d have to create a period
Our journey is really OVER
With all these emotions
I just wasn’t ready to stop that relationship
I’m forced to create closure
Bottom line, I’m just not ready
I’m forcing myself to accept that my feelings are ok
I’m trying to move on & he is no longer allowed to be a part of it
No turning back
