All things hidden.

Waves Inward

Yes. I have been thinking of Tim. I cannot just forget him. I don't think ever I could. I miss him. Love? I do not know. I fell into something when I met him.

Something.

(good poem?)

Something found. Something felt, something lost.

What?

"Be worth my infatuation."

words written for Duayne but now have deeper meaning for Tim. What a wonderful name! Almost called him today. But I do not really want to contact him. Reasons that are not really clear to me. I do not want to hurt him. Nor do I want to be hurt. I was going to call Kelly P. today, to find out his address and to see how he is doing. I do not have her phone number. Then I tried to call Gretchen, because I know she has his address. She was not a home.

Dane! Dane! Dane! Stop it! You are only going to make matters worse. I wanted to make him a tape of music and send it to him with a short note, like: I still care. I would not put a return address on it. I think it would be better that way.

Maybe.

I am so confused about my feelings any more. (You can tell by my last entry)

What is to become of me in the next year? Will I just fade away from everyone's lives? I know I will not from Kelly's. But Tim's? What does he think of me? What is he doing? How is he?

Answers!

So what happens now? Now that I am in San Francisco making Kelly's life horrible. I should never have come. Like I have said before: she is better off without me. Her family is right. She should forget me.

So easy to say. Not easy to do. It takes time. Sometimes, though, it takes only one night. But it comes back and haunts you. So frightening that the emotions come back, the feelings, the need of her. She is frightening to me. I cannot escape her. Caught. (another good poem?) She is inside of me always. Always will I love her. I know. I feel.

Insight.

I do not know how to handle love Better off without me. If I ever survive this, I will never admit my love for anyone who I love deeply and in return loves me. Tim said that I was a person that he could fall in love with. Pity for him. Loving me is the same as suicide. I know this. I have learned. I guess in away, they have learned too.

But the hurt.

Am I hurting Tim now? Please, no. Forget me Tim. I never existed. Kelly, forget me. I never existed. There is no choice between the two. Kelly, I love more and more each day. I never knew what I felt for Tim. Kelly is undefined also, but yet so overpowering. Kelly is overwhelming. I am caught by love. But am I ready to accept it? I cannot even accept myself.

So many things to be learned.

I want to be everything. Most of all accepted, not only by other people (that has not been a problem) but by myself. To love myself,

A goal.

A dream.

Memories: So many. Good, Bad. Memories come with living. To be human. That is my problem. I am either too much of a human or not enough.

Confusing.

Ponder: human. etc. etc.

I wonder who will fall across this journal, someday. When I'm gone or not around. Listen: this is for anyone who reads this: This journal only hits about 50% of my feelings and emotions. It has a lot of growing and changing. You may think good or bad thoughts of me, I do not care. But the entries are written with feeling. That I know. I also know that I am a hypocrite. So sue me for writing what I feel.

My nineteenth birthday is coming up upon me. Depressing almost a year ago Chris and I started our "affair" or whatever it was, or you would call it. So many things happened in one year.

Unbelievable!

Children! I love them so much. My children will be the most important thing in my life. I will do everything I can to make them prefect and happy. And to go without he pains I have gone through. Independent, but yet can still depend on me. They will be my reward for living this awful life. Beautiful are children. All of them!

I am so young, but so old. Nineteen is young, my mind is old and dying. Each year more and more things happen to me.

Good. Bad. Confusing.

I am being repetitive (again).

I am tired of being poor. Money depresses me very much. "The look" of money. A "look" period. I do not even know what I want to look like anymore. Everytime I leave the house, I am surprised by my looks and mostly dissatisfied. Of course. So many styles and looks in the world. And I want to try them all on. I do not want to pick just one. If I do, I become dissatisfied.

So it goes. And life goes on without you.

Passion for Perry Ellis. Too expensive for my budget, but I seem to have gotten the cologne, deodorant, and today: underwear. Which I wear now.

All things hidden.

One could not tell that I wish to be Perry Ellis. My hair, my face, my clothes, are such a mixture.

Lost in this world, I try to live.

The grass is always greener for others, I need to start pulling the weeds on my side. So I make myself suffer. A child without food. No culture, no feelings, no guilt? I live my life for pain. Unknown to me is the answers. To start over again. But I cannot.

Diverse moods overwhelm me.

So it goes, So I go. So life goes.

So I stop writing here,

Goodbye:

- Dane
