silentbob i really wish you were here!!! 060524
...
silentbob today i thought about you too much, and today i took a breath. 060525
...
silentbob today i woke up and inspected my neck for hickies. 060527
...
silentbob i keep putting myself in this situation where i call you and want you to call me back and you don't so i'm left waiting around and just kicking around and just rising and falling with my chest as a i breathe in this oxygen chamber of flab and bone with my ribcage being the only validation that i'm alive at all and i just wish you would fucking call me.

you told me you got nervous when i held your hand, that good kind of nervous that you feel in your abdomen.

i told you i got nervous before i hung out with you, on my way over, but felt fine when we were together. the nervousness dissipates when i'm around you.

i hate making myself that desperate asshole.

silentbob is it weird to think
that i take this thing more seriously
(this regular casual thing)
more serioulsy than the thing i had with a person for a year?
did i maybe take her for granted?
or am downplaying it in retrospect?
maybe i put a priority on you because you are current.
maybe i take it really seriously because it is a genuine sexual fling
and it makes me feel like a real person
more than the thing that seemed like a movie when i thought about it with her
felt so fake
maybe more emotion is more real
why is it always piano keys with me?

...
silentbob i started thinking about what our last night together will be like
how morbid is that
060601
...
silentbob why haven't you written me?
the reason i seemed put off was because i wanted to be alone with you.
060607
...
silentbob i knew you'd stop being mad. 060609
...
silentbob i'm going to make a point of not calling you for seven days.
to show you i can.
i'm going to make a point of not thinking about you for seven days.
just to show me i can.

...
silentbob i thought you wanted to be an island
so i thought i'd respect that
but i miss your palm trees and white sandy beaches, and shallow blue waters.
i miss you.
060615
...
silentbob i wish you'd invited me to that thing. 060615
...
silentbob it was good to see you
before i left
if only for a short while
060622
...
silentbob i'm coming back to you.
with clean shorts and clean sheets and a full plate and bad dreams
i'm coming back to you.
i missed you.
060628
...
silentbob so where'd you go?
how was your vacation home
well obviously you were busy, too busy for me
eventually i will get past you
and stop thinking of you
in idle moments
when i am otherwise unoccupied
i see your face on the faces of sitcom stars
and feel your movements
beneath the sheets in my bed
you barely exist at all now
because that was how it was supposed to be
and i'm worried that it's all my fault
cuz it is
but i wanted to say
happy valentine's day. i hope the sun's out in new york. i hope he bought you roses. i hope he bought you roses. so happy valentine's day. i hope the sun's out in new york. i hope he bought you roses. i hope he bought you roses

i hope there's not another he
i want him to be me
at least for a while
if it can last at all
i don't know about your perspective
because you more closed now
which is just as well
because that was always how it was supposed to be
you don't respond
when i tell you i miss you
i'm just trying to stay in your life
but if i were with someone
anyone
i probably wouldn't
call you
at all.

how pathetic is that?
