Mister, Mister

i haven’t thought about you in forever.  truly.  until last night.  i just couldn’t shake you from my head.  no sleep.  well, ok, three hours max… maybe.  and for what?  nothing.  absolutely nothing. 

i can’t write you.  i can’t see you.  i can’t phone you or e-mail you. why?  because i would rather die than risk the humiliation.  risk rejection.  again.

i’ve thought of sending you this link.  anonymously.  just as a way to stay in touch.  without really being in touch.  but, i’m afraid to show myself.  on so many levels. 

besides, i’d probably regret “showing myself… “

this is my safe haven.  my saving grace.  where i can say anything.  without judgment.  without fear…

where nobody knows my name.

    “You don’t know me, you don’t wear my chains…” I love this song. I’ve been living this song lately - dreaming of an escape, a way out, starting over…. I had never seen the video before… love it.
