"But who cares cause my heart is a dark force
to be reckoned with
she took it and ripped it apart
opened it and shredded it
never give love to a pretty girl with a negative outlook
there's no such thing as a friend no benefits
so sweet so elegant, so weak, so intelligent
I forget like the night is my last night
and the past nights mean nothing
so I lose my composure
lost in space cause my worlds over"

Love.... it's a really interesting emotion. At first it's this great energizing feeling, then it's agonizing pain when you lose a love that's been part of your life for so long. Brennon was my life, my love. And for the longest time I have felt betrayal for how I am beginning to feel. I've been scared, and worried and uncomfortable. I've felt guilty and angry and a mix of other emotions. I loved Brennon. He was my life. He's gone. And he'd want me to move on. And.. so I shall.
KK and Derek have been wonderful to me. They took me in, they saved me. I had a dream, since all this shit started I had a dream. I was with Derek and KK and we were just... together and laughing and happy. It was just a gorgeous dream. It speaks what I feel in my heart. I thought I was confused, uncertain and just scared of being alone. Then I analyzed the situation. It wasn't that at all. I ran back here as soon as I saw KK's post. I was scared shitless she was going to do to herself what I had wanted her to do to me. I got back and just... I don't know anymore. I had come to terms with what I had felt. I had come to terms with Brennon's death. I'd come to terms that everyone around me that's stuck in this mess is going to die. I'm accepting of this. Bit... not yet. Not KK. Not this soon. I want a chance to tell them. Talk to them. Be with them. I don't give a damned if the time we have is limited. I just want them to know. And I know it's what Brennon would want me to do.
He'd want me to be happy. He'd want me to live my life. And that's what I'm doing. I'm going to live.
I'm here at home with KK and Derek. I'm happy. I'm home. And this is where I want to stay.
I love you guys... KK, Derek, if you read this, I love you. Brennon would want me happy. You guys make me happy. We'll live and die through this together. I'm not leaving. You can't make me.
I love you.
Aiden, take care of them. Please, dear God, don't let them be hurt. I don't give a fuck what KK says, I'm still going to give a shit. And you... please be careful, Aiden. I worry so much about you.
ReplyDeleteThank you Dia, I'll try. I can't promise anything. I know we're all going to die eventually, no getting around that. I know how these stories end. But for now, it's time to get serious and work on extending the amount of time we have.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the thoughts, I do appreciate them and wish the same of you. Keep safe, and welcome to the madness. If you ever need something, feel free to look me up.
That's right you stay put. We still need to find you, bro.
ReplyDelete...really though, I'm glad you're doing okay. I'm sorry we haven't really been in contact. It kind of slips my mind when we're doing all this traveling and avoiding and busting knee caps.
At least I get to see a lot of places I guess. I always wanted to do that.
Love you, Ai. We'll figure out our way out of this fucking desert and get up there. Promise. We just want to see you again.
