short story babies.....


I started driving fast as I left the night life behind me, I had no idea what I had expected from this situation,  I had no idea if this was in fact a situation that I even wanted to be in.
I hoped to find someplace unoccupied as I drove aimlessly, the light snows coating the windscreen with the absence of windscreen wipers...I had merely become too lazy to engage them.
My mind drifted back into technicoloured memories of the night we had shared and with every flash of what had once been my stomach turned with the envious rapture of delight...with the excitement of some warped sense of achievement.
For I had pined for you for too long, so long in fact that I was accustom to you neglect and rejection, like a well oiled machine I ran on what was familiar, me...giving you everything, you...absent like a alcoholic father, enjoying my attention when it suited you and when it didn’t, it suited you to act as if I were a fictions character, a piece of furniture, easily disposable.
I loved you as much as I hated you, forcing myself to focus on the few aspects of your personality that I disliked and abounding on them in order to not miss you so much during the times of neglect.
I worked hard for an ounce of attention and when that was stripped away, hate was my only comfort and in a sad desperation I would razz every attempt to think positively about you and change directions as to avoid your dwelling, for i knew your phone was off the hook only too me.
But tonight, I was granted you oh so valuable time, and inside the moseleum that you reside in we broke boundaries.
Dimly lit, but oh so secure.
I was so high I thought your kiss would surely kill me, that your touch, as if taken from the depth of a shakespheran romance would resolve all my internal conflicts and surely make me whole again.

And as I drove to someplace unoccupied, some place I had never touched before, I knew only one thing...
For all the attention you had fed me now, would result in an eternity of starvation...
