left with an aftertaste

Oct 10, 2003 12:22

It's best not to read it. It's best to skip past the words and look forward without looking back or taking a glance at now. If I look I see, and right now I really don't like what I see. I'd like to make myself blind. I'd like to make myself unfeeling. I'd like to make myself forget and I'd really like to make myself forgive ( Read more... )

You do not always have to hide and you do not have to act.

There are those willing to embrace you as you stand without questions, without judgements.

I hope you know this and you find the person you can be real with. The real you is priceless. Do not let the world know an act.

phoenixj October 10 2003, 12:04:41 UTC

Maybe not, but there are times that it's for the best.

An act can be so much easier in some occasions.

Don't fall for the "easy road" trip.

I'm around if you want to talk.

phoenixj October 10 2003, 12:13:28 UTC

Seems as appealing as a drug, but I know I won't in the end.

ex_welling709 October 10 2003, 11:28:27 UTC

This is REALLY fucking ironic, in the ugliest sense of that word.

phoenixj October 10 2003, 12:03:20 UTC

Whatever you say. These aren't accusations.

It's possible I could have written this same exact update not so long ago, for the same reasons, I assume, with different parties involved. Aftertaste is an appropriate word.

phoenixj October 10 2003, 13:07:02 UTC

It's certainly not a very pleasant aftertaste, is it? I think you and me could benefit from dinner sometime.

ex_gwyneth319 October 10 2003, 13:21:44 UTC

Very unpleasant, and I think we could as well. I'm in New York for the weekend to do some promotion, then back to London. Where does today find you?

phoenixj October 10 2003, 13:59:39 UTC

LA but I can make a side trip to New York.

Reading it might be the only thing that moves you forward. Wash your hands of it. Go ahead. I'm here if you need me.

phoenixj October 10 2003, 13:10:08 UTC

I thought about that and I know you are, but this just might be something I need to get through on my own. This might be something I need to feel.

ex_b_fletch October 10 2003, 12:55:23 UTC

Wise. Very very wise.

And I agree with what you say.

phoenixj October 10 2003, 13:14:22 UTC

I don't know if I think myself wise or really foolish. A combination of both.

Thanks, Bren.

ex_b_fletch October 10 2003, 13:15:34 UTC

A combination works. Foolish is part of wise, and wise is often part of foolish.
