it is a word i use deliberately. i feel like i am only existing. i am jumping through the hoops. i have no interest in life though i do everything everyone expects of me. work is performance art. i am "on" when i walk into the store. i pay my bills the day i get them. i do not buy anything extra. no luxuries. well, i got a haircut and she gave me the mousse/gel stuff. i don't know how to use it. i suck at being feminine. i bought sunglasses for Bunny. she needs the UV protection for her soft brown eyes while we drive to and from work.
but i miss him. with every breath, every sigh, every tear, i miss him. i ache for him. since Brick died, it's like my Dragon died all over again. no more stories. and that makes me a selfish witch. i mourn for Brick. but am i mourning him, or the loss of the stories he shared with me? i feel awful. i don't know. i never met him. his death has made me miss my Dragon even more. i look at my photos of him and pine.
i miss our home. i miss our town. i miss our walks. i miss being outside like we were. my hair a mess of tangles. my skin ruddy from the cold and wind. collecting rocks and shells and all the photos i took of him.

i miss our home. i miss our town. i miss our walks. i miss being outside like we were. my hair a mess of tangles. my skin ruddy from the cold and wind. collecting rocks and shells and all the photos i took of him.it can bring me to my knees. i put my head down on the desk and sob for what i can never have again. him. Rockport. home. ocean. rocks. him. home. him.
i am grieving. i am in mourning for my lost love. lost love. is he really lost? or am i lost? i am hurting so much. 2 years. 2 short/long years.
my only whimsy is Bunny. the Bun. my alter ego who understands the way of the world so much. she is the Oracle at Delphi. she is the go to girl for all the answers. and her silence is the answer because she knows, omnipotent Bunny, that there is no answer. it is what it is. it's life.
she is quite the Bun. she is a fashionista. she is a good listener. she keeps her moon necklace close and her thoughts even closer. her lips are sealed. all secrets are safe with Bunny.

i miss him. i long for him. i am empty without him.
so is Bunny.

you are not insane. You are reacting quite sanely to an insane situation.
I will be thinking of you over the next few days xxxx
