about the hiatus

well. i knew that it’d been a while since i wrote here, but i hadn’t realized almost two entire years passed.  i want to start by first explaining where i was when i started using this as a place to write.

two years ago,  i was 17.  i was 17 and still in love with Kerry and had been since i was 15.  I was 16 when she first assaulted me.  I know that’s in thich contrast from the feelings i had back then and even the feelings i had about this since before march of this year.  I was sixteen fucking years old and a child and she was an adult and she had sex with me.  we spoke openly about the age difference and she stated it as a huge reason we couldn’t date, but it didn’t seem to stop her from repeatedly assaulting me.  it was assault not for me being unwilling, but for me being a fucking child.  she was intensely manipulative, and after years of this, i finally officially ended things for the last time, fed up with her dragging me behind her.

i was done with high school, but i was still living at home, i was insanely manic, and yet, it wasn’t the worst.  After i ended things with Kerry, my manic tendencies increased, i was assaulted again while on a tinder date, and things really went south.

I ended up in the hospital, inpatient for psychiatric care.  it was only a few days, but it completely has changed my outlook on recovery.  the following was just a fucking rollercoaster of shit, being stuck in treatment centers, fighting with insurance, fighting with myself… but eventually i got back into the swing of things mentally.

smewhere in that mess, in july 2016, i met kenny.  we met doing coke in some rich kid’s apartment but he’s the greatest thing to ever happen to me.  we both got better at not doing drugs every weekend, and i quickly fell into his bed and then not long afterward, fell in love.  gay.  i know.  it’s terrifying because i don’t know what those feelings are for me, i’ve really honestly never been in this serious of a relationship that’s completely and totally healthy.  he’s wonderful, he’s so good to me, he’s so sweet and kind and great that i’ve never been happier with another person.

in may of 2017 i finally moved out.  the opportunity to move out came unexpectedly in the form of a sublease on a 3 bdroom with two great roommates.  i didn’t even have a job, or know if i could afford it, and i told them i was in, providing i had a little bit of time to figure my shit out.  within two weeks i had a job, was making enough money that the move was possible, and was on my own starting 15 may, 2017.

i don’t know what i want to do with this fuckin blog but i’m gonna try to come here more often to write.  i miss it as a thing i used to do, and i thing i have things to say?

hello world // the front bottoms

it used to go question & then answer
but we were younger & it was easy
& now it goes question & then question,
question, answers don’t come so easy
but I am a grown-up, so I should find something to occupy my time
instead of notebooks filled with nonsense
looking for answers I’ll never find. [x]

it’s eleven past six & it has been less than twenty-four hours since i have realized that i’m doing everything wrong.  i’m sober now, but all i can think about is where i was last night.  i have truly really 100% had the moment that i really needed.  i guess life works that way.  it’s about time that i’ve been thrown a good thing here, after so much to deal with.  i finally feel like i have an answer to what i’ve been needing, and it honestly scares the hell out of me.  knowing is scarier to me than staying in the dark, having to plan and execute is something that i’m not super familiar with, but now will have to be.

i have a bad habit of planning things in perfect detail and never following through.  this will not be one of those things.

i will find the next set of questions and fill in the answers.
