If wishes were horses
I’d ride a fast one
If wishes were wings
I’d fly wild and free
If wishes were trains
I’d be on the last one
If wishes came true
You’d be loving me
If wishes were blue skies
I’d never get rained on
I’d walk in the sun
Whenever I please
If wishes were dreams
I’d dream the same one
Over and over
Of you loving me
I whisper your name
On each star I see falling
That old wishing well
Gets each penny I find
And every year I blow out every candle
And close my eyes
And wish you were mine
Oh if wishes came true
Then you would be mine
Do you have things that you hold onto simply for comfort's sake - Things that aren't necessary for survival, or for your existence, but are necessary for your heart?
Do you hold on tightly to something much like a child does a stuffed toy or security blanket?
As children most of us have clung to such items of comfort such as a "blanky" or a "binky", or a stuffed animal. In trying to recall such things I realised I can't recall too mnay things like that. My comfort items as a child are very similar to the sorts of items I 'cling' to for comfort now. Special clothes, but mostly things that revolve around the one activity I find the most comforting. Sleep.
My comfort items now are my pillow, my blanket, Ralph and my bed.
I have to always have my own pillow, no matter where my head is resting at night. I used to have to have an extra blanket. Didn't have to be a particular blanket, just an extra one nearby in case I get cold at night. I get cold easily when sleeping. But now I have my duvet - so the extra blanket is no longer needed.
Ralph. Ralph is my "stuffed animal" that I MUST have in order to even have a chance at falling asleep. I must have him under my arm, and oddly, if I wake up in the middle of the night - he is the first thing I think of... where he is if he isn't under my arm. He protects me while I sleep.
All of these things help get me through the tough days. Helps me feel better.
I am in my Comfort Zone.
I'm sick of feeling period.
I'm sick of caring.
I'm sick of loving.
I'm sick of hating.
I'm sick of it all.
Emotion is overrated...
It was my 10 year reunion last weekend. Can you imagine - 10 years since I graduated! It wasn't quite what I imagined it to be. I always had this vision, this image, and it was completely off. Not in a bad way... just the way life works.
I have been thinking about myself in highschool. About my life then. About me then.
I remember "visiting" Bobby by his locker, just to see his smile.
I remember "visiting" Bobby by his locker, just to catch a glimpse of his best friend.
I remember skipping out on math so that we could go get ice cream.
I remember my Blue Slip adventures each day with Ly.
I remember living, dreaming, and eating basketball on a daily basis with the "posse".
I remember waiting for the psycho bus driver on the 205 to take us home after school.
I remember high school dances where we thought we were so cool!
I remember MCMR club and finding excuses not to be in physics.
I remember all night cramming sessions and flat out not studying.
I remember the first day of school uniforms.
I remember morning Dunkin Donuts trips with my sister.
I remember going to Salem and having a blast.
I remember Quebec City and Provincials and the troll and the lucky penny.
I remember everything.
I remember nothing.
I remember.
It's unfortunate that it has been 10 years... and even more unfortunate that it will be 10 more.
Friends
Because of a lot of reasons, I was shocked by how ever-changing friends are. I don't know why things have to change, and I don't begin to understand. Whatever happened to "Friends forever" and "don't ever change"? Were these just ideals that little kids used to write but never meant to be fufilled?
I really don't understand. Is this what the adult world is like? Will it just get gloomier and darker every step of the way, getting increasingly harder to continue? I don't want it to become harder, but I can't really say. I don't think I know anything at all. Which is really sad, but I guess that's the way it is.
I used to believe that friends were the security belt in life. I mean, you can't rely on family--they betray you like all others: parents divorce, parents can abuse, siblings can be resentful and hurt you... you can't trust family, because they're just there because they have no choice. What's to stop them from hurting you?
But friends...friends are people that you choose, and choose you in return. If you have chosen to come together, why would you choose to leave these people that you have chosen? Because of change? Then why do you change? Because of life? Is this the curse of life? That we will always be alone, that everyone is alone from the instant they are born till the moment that they die? Is this life?
Then I don't understand what the point of having friends is. The higher you climb, the farther you fall. Why should I work so hard to make friends just so that they can let me down? Why should I continue to try? I don't think I see much sense in this. Experience has taught me, after all, that the instant you open up to people, you're vulnerable to them. No matter how hard to try to close the doors frantically after that, once you give them the leverage that they need, it's always too late--you can never get away unscathed.
So I was just wondering...what is the point of having friends, or is there no point at all. Are friends really forever, or is this just a childish dream? Are humans really meant to live together, or are we just like wolves? Lonely and cold, seeking company at times, but designed to separate when times get better? Is that who we are?
