remember me, special needs..
I have quite a few nick-names/handles for myself. For my many facets. To sort of display this to the world.
Perhaps the one I like most, it the one I am so quiet and private about
Little Miss Retrospect
As it appears, people always love me or appreciate me more in retrospect. When I have been pushed to the point that there is nothing left. No love. No hate. Just a bitter indifference as that is all I am capable of giving. When I have been drained of all my love, my hate and everything in the middle. When I have invested all the emotion I can. And though I try to fashion myself a sarcastic ice princess at times...truth be told it takes quite a bit. I may not be forgetful, but I am forgiving. I see the good and the special in the most disgarded, disgraced people. Yes. I will see your light. When all others including yourself are putting you down, or making you ache, I will be there. I will pluck out your best points and force you to see them. And I will do it and believe it with all of my heart .... But there comes a point....
Soul preservation ya know. I have to keep a close watch on this ol heart o mine. So the song goes, right?
Oh silly one. Do you not realize, with every foolish choice, every time you make my heart question you or your motives I take two huge leaps backwards??? I back away from you. And one day, should you continue I will be gone. Leaving you there alone. To follow in the foot-steps of so many before you. So many I adored, cherished and would have given anything for. Just asking a little more effort....a bit more sincerity in return. Not fear, not worry, not anguish. Just to feel a bit special...like the work and the emotion were not just tokens. Not in vain.
It is not what I want..and it does hurt truth be told. But to feel like an afterthought..is just the cruelest sting of them all. I do not let go or back away to be mean. I just am left with no other option.
Little Miss Retrospect...yes...title suits me well.. Very very very well...
someone out there, remind me to stop loving and caring for others..really please...tie up my heart and wrists..I don't care
