i just want to sleep now.

Sep 15, 2009 23:01

I find myself more and more often unable to sleep.  I lie in bed and continually mull over things. I think about my day.  I think about tomorrow.  I think about what I should have eaten, instead of what I did eat.  I think about giving my dog a bath.  I think about the people that I miss.  I think about how I should exercise and I think about how they should make cubicles with doors (and locks) and ceilings…and that it would be nothing at all like an office.  I also wonder if there has ever been a successful cat muzzle that would be available for purchase that I can buy the loud of mouth cat in my life.

Lately I think about my ex.  I have such mixed emotions about this.  I keep hoping that she’ll come and make some sort of grand gesture.  Something that says that she does not want me to go away.  It’s not a game that I’m playing.  I did break up with her, and not in the best of ways, and I feel like I did what I had to do.

In my mind, I know that we were not good together.  I know that we were never really going to be good…or more to the truth…we were never going to be what I wanted.  In my mind, I know that I did what I should have done two years ago.  In my mind, I know that I deserve better.   In my mind, I can realize that she really is a self-centered asshole and I’m better off without her.

In my heart and the rest of my body?  I just miss her.  I do.  I shouldn’t.  I hate that I do, but I miss her.  The worst part is that I don’t even have a good reason for missing her.  How can I really miss talking to someone who’s not ever really available?  How can I miss seeing someone who’s never really around?  How can I miss a friendship that was never all that balanced?  How can this be loneliness if there was not much companionship to begin with?  This whole thing really has not changed my day-to-day life much.  How an I let go of something that I never had a grasp on to begin with?!

So, why do I keep hoping that she’ll make some grand gesture?  I’m not really sure.  Maybe because she said that she loved me?  Maybe because she told me I was important to her?  Maybe because I thought that for once, someone meant those words and intended to prove it.  I’m not playing a game, I guess I’m just desperate for someone to actually mean(and prove) what they say.
