What Did She Say

My mind is always open

Stuck

Posted by jackiyo 5 Comments

I sit here because I have so much to write.

I’m writing because I don’t know what to write. I don’t know where to start or what to say.

I have posts in me, but they’re stuck. I want to write about perceptions and perspectives and email carriers. I want to write about bras and comfort zones. I want to write about acting like I belong. I want to write about fantasies and crossing the line into reality.

But all those things are stuck.

They’re stuck behind something bigger. Something I can’t write about. Every time I go to think about something else, this bigger thing pushes its way back to the forefront demanding my full attention again.

But this thing is an unmentionable. It’s a big thing. It’s bigger than the bitch in the corner – she is LOVING this, though. She and this thing are getting along famously.

I’m not sure how to get my other thoughts out and around this big thing. I try to do it when the big thing is sleeping, but that only buys me about ten seconds at most. It comes barging back into my thoughts almost immediately upon waking. It makes sure it’s the last thing I think about before I go to bed. And it seeps into my every minute.

But I can’t write about it.

So, I write about not writing about it.

There are so many thoughts and feelings around this big thing that are in the way of this flood of other thoughts and musings and posts. It’s my Hoover Dam. There’s a lot of good stuff back there, but it’s blocked by the crap.

I’m confused. I’m tired. And goddamnit, it’s infuriating. Unfortunately, sleeping it off is not making the big thing go away. I haven’t tried drowning it with alcohol, but I’m pretty sure that’s not gonna help.

So, here I sit and I write about not writing. Trying to figure out a way around the big thing.

    You need to write or it is going to overtake you. Things like this can overpower you and ultimately, rob you of happiness. While it may not make the issue go away, writing will get your thoughts out of your head and on paper. Talking and vocalizing sometimes helps, too. I think your intuition is telling you to write, to get it out of your head.

    I was going to say the same, write but don’t publish…or publish it annon. on a friends site. Hope you find a way to push it out of the way.

    Sounds like the only way to get around the big thing is to write about it. You don’t have to publish it, but perhaps pounding it out will help.
