My Chest Hurts

My chest is tight. Cortisol is flowing through my veins.

This is fight or flight. But I don’t want either. I won’t flee because before I knew it...I wanted it.

It wasn’t supposed to be like this. It was supposed to be like so many other times. I don’t know what happened but I can’t breath. I can’t speak and when I try it’s hollow, false, and shallow.

I feel dizzy and I need to use the bathroom but I can’t move, I cant say that I need to excuse myself for a moment.

I do not understand the difference of one person to the next when you don’t know them. They should be all the same. You all are the same.

Within minutes I noticed your calves and your arms....your hands. I became addicted to them.

Some invisible scent filled my lungs and paralyzed me. It took over my body.

Your awkward laugh and honest quips put me under a spell and I just wanted you to keep talking.

Don’t ask me to talk, I’ll gasp. I’ll sound stupid or incoherent. My chest hurts. My chest is tight.

Every cell in my body will crave you and you won’t ever know.

You’ll think I’m uninteresting and boring. If I talk you’ll think I ramble and I’ll bore you.

You won’t know that, while relaxed, I’m excited and carefree. I love to laugh and sing loud bar songs after a couple pints of Guinness. My passion and lust for life are muted and stifled under the intense wave of pleasure that is your presence.

My chest is tight.

I wish you could see me naturally because I know you’d see it. Maybe you’d be drawn to me as I’m drawn to you. Maybe you’d fall in love with me. Maybe your body would ache for mine as mine aches for you. Maybe we would be friends and comfortable in each other’s presence.

But you won’t ever see me because my chest is tight. And I can’t breathe.

Day two at #CrimeCon made a few dreams come true for me. Finally got to put my hands on #PaulHoles. And the biggest reason I wanted to come was to see @truecrimeobsessedpodcast and @crimejunkiepodcast at their joint panel and meet and greet. Meeting the ladies from @undisclosedpod was also amazing. Hearing Rabia Chaudry cuss was a highlight of my weekend. I also got to meet @janibroberg from #AbductedInPlainSight, that was wild! After I got to go to the #Pride parade with my fellow Brevard #Murderinos since they had their meetup without us! This weekend has been so effing cool. And I already bought my ticket for #CrimeCon2020!!! #HotForHoles #NOLAPride #ReadyForANap (at Hilton New Orleans Riverside) https://www.instagram.com/chrisandcrossbones/p/ByfjCFth7vI/?igshid=sdk8jbjfokpl

My Fog

Once again in I’m in the fog of unbridled desire.

I’m strong in spurts, thinking I can withstand the overpowering ocean in my mind. The ocean may be my heart but the distinction between heart and mind are indistinguishable now.

I break against the waves and let them take me. Swimming against the current will kill me.

I know that your love would save me, or I’ve at least convinced myself of it.

I’m irrational and cannot convince myself that you are not the answer. And when I cannot get your love, I will look for it elsewhere. I’ll look for your love and see it everywhere that I am reminded of you.

You will inhabit every space in my head every minute of the day.

Imagining the gift of a life with you will bring me peace. It will calm me.

It kills me while it quiets the loud parts of my ocean.

I will listen to the music you like and watch the movies you love. I will read the books you read. I will share things with you when you don’t realize. And I will do this because it’s the closest I can get to you without dying or clamming up.

It is wrong that I should want you so. It is uncontrollable obsession and I would spare you that. For you to see me like this would be a crime.

So I stay in the fog. Swimming in my own filth and pain.

I won’t always love you and that is my only solace in the fog.
