Vows Never Spoken :: Vows Never Heard

[Most Beautiful], you stand on this beach... and I'm right here.

You stand with your perfect little feet in the sand, the most beautiful thing I've ever seen... and I'm right here.

I've seen you laugh and I've seen you cry. I've seen you fall and I've seen you fly... and I was right there.

I've seen you accomplish incredible things... running marathons, rocketing skyward in your career and powering through everything life threw at you... and I was right there.

I've seen you give me the greatest, most perfect gifts I never even thought imaginable... the best one being this love that I honestly didn't even think was possible... didn't think existed... and I was right there.

I've seen you take some things a little too far (New Years... and New Years... and New Years)... and I was right there. (holding your hair at times)

I've seen you grow and wander life's path, finding out who you are and what you wanted from it... and I was right there.

And now life has opened this new path for us. A path that has more steps that I can fathom. A path that has no end... a path that I never want to end... and I will be right here.

No matter where this path leads you, no matter what it takes you through, no matter what you have to endure along the way... Your triumphs and your tragedies... Your victories and your defeats. I want you know from this moment on, until my last breath leaves my lips, until my heart beats its last beat... I will always be right here.

I'm On the Wrong Bus :: What I Was Going to Ask

-
For months now I have had this feeling. This "not myself" feeling. As if I'm walking 5-10 feet beside myself, like I'm in the wrong place every moment of every day. Even if I'm in familiar places with familiar friends and it is what should be a comfortable, happy time. I just feel.... "off". I realized what it reminds me of. I'm not sure if this ever happened to you as a child, but once in grade school I got on the wrong bus to go home (the bus number in the morning was different from the afternoon, but I got on the "morning" one after school). That's how I feel now. Like I can see everything passing by me, it's all familiar, but I know I'm not where I'm supposed to be and the path I'm on isn't heading where I want to go... and that I have no control to stop it, I'm just forced to go along for the ride. That's exactly how this all feels, like I am absolutely *not* where I'm supposed to be and *not* go...

It's Been a Great Couple of Months

My Birthday: Sat alone in the house. Thanksgiving: Sat alone in the house. Christmas: Sat alone in the house. New Year's: Sat alone in the house. Valentine's: Sat alone in the house. "Our house..."our".... fucking bullshit. I've now been in "our" house longer than you lived here with me. You're a fucking coward. You're a fucking liar. Hope you're having a wonderful time fucking whatever random dude you're fucking now. And I say random since you could have only known him a short time when you started fucking him soon after we were supposed to marry. Although I get the feeling that whomever you're fucking now isn't the same random dude you were fucking right after you broke it off. Which means you're already on to yet another random dude. What a whore. And if it isn't some "random" dude.. if it's someone you knew when we were together... well then that makes you a lying, cheating fucking whor...

After the Wine

I'm not sure if you still come here since I said I was done posting. Maybe I'll text you tomorrow to tell you this is here. I'm sure you'll wake up tomorrow and regret that you reached out to me while you were tipsy, but it's okay. I'm very worried about you, but it's okay. I have no clear idea where you are mentally and emotionally right now, but maybe I do have a small clue. I get that you're lost and confused and all I can say is the same things I've been saying for 5 months: I care about you. You're important to me (and the kids are important to me). I've heard you and I understand what you need from someone. I'm only asking the opportunity to show you these things. I'm not concerned about sweeping you off your feet romantically (although I can do that (again) if you'd like, in addition to the things I'm really focused on with "us")... my only concern right now is demonstrating to you that I can provi...
