After a lifetime of wanting Love, desire, companionship and understanding, after giving so much of myself to so many, only to find myself rejected, reviled, rebuked and ignored...
To know that I will likely never know even the tiny pleasures others so often take for granted...
Something in me resists these truths. So, -- almost paradoxically -- I am negative right now because hope still has its awful stranglehold on me.
I would rather feel bad than cold, numb, or unfeeling. I prefer the truth of this feeling, to manufacturing an artificial positivity.
