Happy Endings.

Shame Folded Neatly

The closet was dark, and the air stale.
I waited until I could no longer hear
the breathing, and cracked open the door.
It took several seconds for my eyes to begin
to adjust to the light; I had been hidden
for several hours, most of the night.
And each breath you withhold, while still
sat across the room, arms crossed, and waiting
is released into the center of the room. I hear you
now your image becomes shadow, then curved line,
then hair, cheeks, eyes, lips, and my racing heart
is released into the center of the room. I hear you
I am fully admitted and betrayed
by the vibrations of that persistent organ
pounding in my ears and of that accidental welcome.
You alight beside me
relieving me of my guard, and returning
my promise of faith.

I thought I had waited long enough, but instead you held fast to your claim that I would emerge faithfully back into the room. And of course, I did. Not yet ready to face our lost time. And the screaming, long since dulled against the cold green plaster walls now cracked by our words thrown hard, aimed at heads and hearts, but missing. In the center of this room all that remains is heated breath and pounding heart. And the two of us are searching our thoughts, and desperately trying to string together enough words to reconnect.







p.s. sometimes in the moment we are unable to see the forest for the trees.



"Yes, I do." so now, back to that question...

Alright, this will probably be the last comment I get to make on here until at least Monday and I'll make it quick.

Mayo,

You just continue to surprise me. That's no easy feat, ya know? Just as I said earlier, whoever this post is referring to, I hope everthing is fine now. One way or another. I don't try to even say that I know what you mean half the time. Either way, I try and I listen. Remember that.

Hugs and kisses, Mystery-Mayo-Man.


SS,

Dude, I always seem to miss you or have to leave when you get here. It sucks, big time. You know, you come here and the whole house lights up. You help us remember to love and take care of one another. You have shown us love, respect and understanding from the very beginning. You amaze me. I talk tough and I admit to being a smartass but because of you and you're compassion for others, I am trying to do better.

I hope you know just how amazing you are.

Come visit us again soon, here or on the porch and please take care of yourself. I do love you to pieces, my sweet anonymous friend.

I hope life always treats you and your loved ones well. You deserve it and so much more.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Love to all of Blogbelieve.

Sweet dreams errbody!

XOXO,
Princess


P.S. - Faith, Hope and Love. From here to eternity.

And a little poker and NASCAR never hurt anybody. Trust me, Mayo. ^_~

So I was talking to Mummy K today and she said that Daddy K had been asking her what she'd been reading on the computer for these many months and she had told him the whole story of this blog.

Then she told him that we were all telling jokes a few days ago, and she told him SS's one. My Dad offered a joke of his own that he asked me to tell, so here it is.

SSS, if you lurk, this is my Dad's joke, maybe you will like it.

Two cannibals are eating a clown together. One cannibal turns to the other and asks, "Do you like your dinner?"

The second cannibal says, "I don't know. It tastes funny."

There you go, cannibals and clowns. ^_^

yep, knapp's the leader. knipp's the tall one, and knopp's the soft one.

sdock10 said...

Mayo,

How are you tonight? Are you as strangely calm as I am? Floating right along? Either way, I hope you are well and happy. It feels good to be back even if it's just for tonight.

So, are you settled in? Situated? Comfortable? This might run a little long....just saying. "Happy Endings"....I like it. It has a such a double meaning for me...like happily ever after or happpy to have it ending. My personal life right now is leaning more towards the latter. I have to be able to see the hope even if it does end and find my own happiness in that. I didn't even realize that's what it could mean until I started talking to you. You made me smile....thank you.

Not that I am entirely ready to give up either. See, I am the one sitting and waiting. But you knew that about me already. You know I am the one who won't walk away. I am the one who faithfully holds on with a clenched fist. Only recently, I opened my hand to find that I have been holding on to nothing. And yet, I still wait. I hope. Is it stubborness? Perhaps. Is it fear of failure? Could be. Is it the need to love and feel loved? Absolutely.

So...do I stay seated and waiting or to I gather my things, myself, and my heart and begin again? Something in me thinks I could still save him....silly girl.


I often wonder what it's like on the other side. What would it feel like to have someone believe in me that much? To have someone wait for me and have that much faith in me? I have never felt it in return. Would I even trust it? Probably fucking not.


Do I repeat myself much? Fuck yes, I do. It's only because I keep thinking I missed something. Looking and searching and digging....and hoping.

Mayo, May you always feel hopeful and find happiness...in the beginning, the middle, and the ending.

L♥ve to YOU Always,
S

p.s. You mean there's a forest? I was too busy raking the leaves to notice. Dwell much? Yes, I do.





Must be able to answer it myself first.....in time.

Anonymous said...

Mayo:

I'm just going to sit here in silence okay? I'm just going to wait until you're ready to talk more. They say silence is golden, so maybe this will work out for the both of us.

I was always a better listener anyway.



SS:

Hello, my favorite dude this side of cyberspace! What's shakin'?

I was trying to think of another joke, but I've come up empty handed. So, I'll get back to you on that. If I can be honest with you, I'd love to tell your joke to the public, but I'm afraid they may ask, "Who the hell told you that?!" kinda like I did. That would require some explanation ;)

Anyway, I hope all is well. Rest up and chill out. Take a bath, eat. What have you.

Thank you for everything.

sdock10 said...

elena said...

Mayo,
Today was a strange day. I walked around your home and was alone for quite awhile. It was eerie but somehow comforting. I know that sounds strange and I really wish I could find the words to explain. Sometimes words truly escape me. Sometimes I wish I could escape words. For the last few days I haven’t said much here or on the porch. I haven’t been able to make myself speak. I sat back and I watched others talking and in my heart I wanted to join in. I wanted to talk to my friends and be a part of all the love and laughter that I could feel but I just couldn’t. Today when I found myself alone here I found my voice. Granted most of the talking I did was just silly, worthless chatter but the point was I was actually talking. It felt good. Mayo, your home has given me a safe place to come and just be my stupid, goofy self. I thank you for that. I can say things here that I would never say anywhere else because I know the response I would get. I can honestly say that this house of yours just feels like home. I just hope you don’t mind my ramblings. In “real” life I’m quiet, I am a mouse. Here, I try to escape that. Lord, I do go on and on. Look Mayo what I’m trying to say is this..I think I understand why you share your words with us. You understand the feeling. You can be yourself and you don’t have to pretend. The words you share can come straight from your heart and don’t have to be edited. Acceptance is found here. Friendship, love, laughter, concern all here. Even when words won’t form and we can’t speak we can still just come here and know we’re not alone. I treasure the feeling. I hope that you do too.

good night sdock! beautiful comment.

hello j. and bc! i've been over setting up my ectoplasmic blog. it's not done yet, but i thought i'd pop my head back in real quick.

i'll be back in a bit!

Original Punk J said...

Elena,

You just summed up exactly what L and I were talking about earlier today. Mayo's house is a place of freedom for us, a place we ALL can come to and be who we truly are, not who people want us to be. It's a place of release for all our innermost thoughts, our hopes, our fears, our dreams, our failures. We each know that when we have no one to turn to in "real life", we can always find an ear or a shoulder here. That goes for you too, Mayo and SS.

There's a reason why there's no lock on the front door. And why the mat says "Welcome To Our Happy Home".

A canibal joke for Kapunua's dad.


A canibal came back from is holidays. His mate asked if he had had a good time.

He said "oh I had a great time, it was brilliant, the people were lovely, the place was lovely, I highly recommend it".

His mate said, "how can it be that wonderful, I can't help but notice that you are missing a leg".

The canibal said "well, it was self catering".

LOL MissT! That's awesome, my Da will love that one and I guarantee you he will tell it to his brother, my Uncle Robert. ^_^

Original Punk J said...

As Dumplin would say, Merrow, BC. I'm pretty good, thanks. Tired still from the daycare duty.

Speaking of food, L went to the grocery today and restocked Mayo's larder. She bought a whole bunch of healthy things, but got some junky stuff too for snacks. She also got some vegan-friendly items for those who want them.

Ergo, she was going to pay for it with the edit-cray ard-cay, but found out Mayo has a standing account with the store. They said that "Mr Mayonaise" set it up for the "lovelies" so that we could get whatever we liked. He simply pays the tab at the end of each month.

Isn't that the sweetest thing?

So, whenever anybody wants something specific, just put it on the list that's on the refrigerator. L will pick it up when she goes each week. Mayo, SS, you guys add your wants/needs to that list as well, ok? Ok.

Hi everyone,
I don't know if you have heard of the small children, thrown off a bridge in Alabama.

My heart is so broken up over this.

This is where i am from, and to see a family so broken up over what this father did to his kids, they found the first body today.

I don't mean to bring it down in here, and i am going to go now.

Just try to remember them in your prayers tonight.

Good night
and
Hugs

Aw Elena, that's cause we love you! AND, we're on the same wavelength, you and we. We Misfits gotta stick together. :)

L got herself some snazzy shoes today. They're just simple black sneakers, they look like Keds, but she put her pair of Misfits laces in them. They are fuckin' FABULOUS. Not your typical almost-40-year-old shoes.

That's good OP J. As for food, my only request is to get something to help me stop eating so much chocolate because I have been eating too much of it for the past few days, and tonight, I bought a couple of bars with almonds on them.


Hi there PJ. That's horrible, isn't it? I heard about that on yahoo and apparently, the father is saying that he didn't commit the crime. What an asshole. My sympathies for the families. I wonder what these idiots think when they kill their own children :/

it's awful about the kids, on father's day last year here a guy was taking his kids to his wifes or somethign and he said he blacked out and drove into a farm dam. All 3 died but he got out.

Such a waste

Hi OP and BC and PJ

did you go to the wake BC?

Original Punk J said...

Hey, Family! I am only on for a minute, just long enough to say Hi! and Bye!. :) I am really tired today, and need to go to bed. I usually wind up turning in WAY too late at night, and I think it is catching up with me.

Hope everyone is doing good today, (nearly tomorrow here) and have a wonderful night. Sweet dreams to you all.

Love you,

Hi there Ergo. How are you? Nope, I didn't get to go to the wake. One of my nephews wasn't allowed to go, and so, we had to babysit him since no one was available to take care of him. I'm okay with it though. I'm gonna say a prayer or mantra later on before I go to bed.

TJ I felt a pesence at your blog, not sure if it heard me...

Original Punk J said...

Mayo,

I don't know, but I feel a sense of hope and compassion from this post of yours. I hope that what ever is going on in your life, that you are truly happy, not just what people expect, but what you want and need.

That's all I really want for you, sweetie. To be happy and content with yourself and accept you for who you are, and not what others want you to be.

This sounds like someone told you they would wait, that they would be there, no matter what, and that they were not abandoning you. And it sounds like they didn't.

Neither will I.

Have a good night, Mayo, and sweet dreams to you. Rest easy and be hopeful.

I offer this to you:

SUDDEN LIGHT

I have been here before.
But when or how I cannot tell.
I know the grass beyond the door,
The sweet keen smell,
The sighing sound, the lights around the shore.

You have been mine before-
How long ago I may not know;
But just when at that swallow's soar
Your neck turned so,
Some veil did fall-I knew it all of yore.

Has this been thus before?
And shall not thus time's eddying flight
Still with our lives our love restore
In death's despite,
And day and night yield one delight once more?

-Dante Gabriel Rossetti

Goodnight, sweetheart. I love you dearly.

L.

Aww that's good squeak squeak. I hope it brought a smile for you :)

Ergo, so far I heard that it went pretty well(thank goodness) and after that, my brother managed to drop some leftover food at our house while I was gone, so yeah, for the most part, it went okay, although I hate the fact that we had to miss out on alot of food :/

This whole situation made me eat for the past few days, especially chocolate. Maybe it was because of my emotional reaction to it, I suppose.

alie. said...

Ergo, I blacked out while driving a few years ago and I rolled my truck. I was completely fine except for a few cuts from the glass breaking. The police told me that if I didn't have my seatbelt on I would have died. It's pretty scary to think about. My truck was completely smashed and they had to use the jaws of life to get me out. I was scared to get in a car for the longest time after that.

Original Punk J said...

Mayo,

The imagery in your post today cuts vividly into my mind. It's as if I'm seeing this person along with you, from your eyes. Just when you thought you were alone, and (supposedly) glad of it too, you discovered that they had not left you after all. And you were so pleased by that, so overwhelmed, that you now don't quite know what to do.

I have guesses as to who you're speaking to with this post. Three, as a matter of fact. Out of respect for your privacy, I won't share those guesses here. They are quite diverse, though, my guesses. But, Heaven knows I probably have no clue at all about the real answer.

Whoever the target of these words is, it sounds as if you are happy with what has transpired. For that, I say wonderful.

Now that your shame is tucked away, maybe you can relax and live your life like you want to do.

Goodnight, brother Mayo. May you rest easy in your tower with your faithful and loving Other.

Love to you

J

Squeak squeak, make sure the room is not occupied. If it is, I'll call in the Ghostbusters.


When there's something strange, in the neighborhood, who you're gonna call....



Ghostbusters! Lol

Ergo, a day at work, then a lacrosse game, we lost by only one point with 3 minutes left!

TJ, don't worry about it. I don't expect you to sleep with me.


Not until the second or third date anyway, ;D

Oh no Ergo, I don't play! I meant the home team. Our Boys.

I would play lacrosse though, but I do Kendo and that's strenuous enough.

last night I dreamed about the ocean. It's the same ocean I always dream about: southern, and below a ridge of cliffs. High tide always brings the water to the top of the cliffs. There was some kind of party and I was surfing. I had to climb a ladder up the cliff but leave my shoes at the bottom.

In my dream of the ocean, there is always an oceanside town, too. It's always got a candy shop and a surf-wear shop.

(Always the same! Does that happen to anyone else? You dream of a place you know really well, but it's always different in your dream, but the differences are always exactly the same? Like you're visiting an actual place, right?)

Anyway, so yahoo today turns up pictures of big wave surfing, which is one of my biggest fears. I've done a tiny bit of surfing and I've enjoyed it, but I have to say, if I was in the water and I saw this coming towards me, I would find a way of killing myself before it was within reach.

There is nothing more terrifying than Big Water Approaching.

Goodnight, all.

Goodnight fimble. Sweet dreams to you.

night fimble!
sweet dreams

Amyranth said...

I have precognitive dreams sometimes. I "see" things I don't recognize, and
after I wake up, it's the only bit I remember, even though I know I had a long dream.
Then, days or weeks later, it happens, or I see it for real.

Dear SS,

Last post of the night, as always, goes to you. How are you tonight, dear one? I hope your day was a good one, and you were able to accomplish some things that you may have wanted to do.

I thought of you today, and it made me smile. It wasn't anything specific, just the thought of you that warmed me. Your sweet words, your kind heart, your tenderness.

(I told your joke to my mom, my sister, and my nephew. My mom half-smiled, my nephew made a groaning noise, and my sister didn't get it. One piece of advice: don't give up your day job. ;))

As you go about your Sunday, remember that I'm with you--no matter what else is happening in our lives--as I know you're with me.

Stay strong, keep smiling, always be true to yourself. You're beautiful, precious; don't let anyone take you for granted.

Feel that? That's me holding you close. I love you, babydoll.

My heart to yours, always.

J

As for deja vu, I have been having a lot of that lately, but except, it shows glimpses of the future instead of the present, if that makes sense.

Hi there RW. How are you?
Ergo, squeak squeak, I haven't told you this, but I wanted to thank you both for making me feel comfortable enough to leave comments here late at night when I feel the most to talk. When I read your long posts, it brings me comfort and a smile to my face. Thanks you guys.

you're welcome bc. i wish my night time comments weren't quite so long though! i can't seem to shut up once i get started. :/

(sorry, mayo. long-winded chickie-poo here.)

ergoproxy said...

wet RW but we checked the 11 eggs I have under my hen and 10 are fertile!!

and I have 2 3-day old chicks but it was too hot for the others to develop properly

Amyranth said...

Ergo, not yet. I love most silicon stuff though.

I AM going to leave you with a TRUE story though.

My co-worker is Lebanese, and a Sunni Muslim. She had been talking to a family member from home who told her of her next door neighbours. They had been married about 10 or 15 years and had the same routine. Every day at noon, the husband would go to the Mosque to pray, and at the same time, the wife's friend would come by to keep her company for the hour he was gone. Being very devout, he did not like to leave his wife alone, even with male members of the family.
Because they were so devout, the wife wore a full burqa like this. As did her friend, being of the same religion.
Well, one day the husband readies to leave. The friend comes over and the wife bids her husband goodbye.
He returns an hour later from Mosque to find an ambulance and medics coming in and out of his house. His wife is sobbing on the front step, and when he asks what has happened she begins to scream of an illness in her friend.
Her friend is wheeled out on a cart, but being deceased a sheet covers the body.
Her husband asks to pay his respects, and lifts the sheet to find a man underneath.

For 15 years, when her husband would go to mosque, her lover would dress in a burqa and come to the house for an hour of fun. He would then leave undetected, because being not of the house, he never spoke to the husband, and was always fully veiled until he left, as is the custom between ladies of that particular vein of the religion.

The man died of a heart attack, in the middle of sex.

Squeak squeak, I call my baby sister chickie-poo sometimes too! As with the comment proofreading, I check that as well. Sometimes I would write something, but then I would edit it, sometimes more than once :)

thank you, resurrected wreck! it makes me feel like i'm really a part of the blog. :)

sorry for the delay in reply -- my comment box is starting to slow down...

I know, SIM, it was totally unexpected! Saturday's aren't usually Mayo days. Maybe he thought he was getting too predictable & decided to mix it up a bit.

Hi there Mj. How are you?

No worries, TJ :) Comments are starting to build up in here so I expect they would be getting slower to load.

May peace and love be with you my friend

doing pretty good, shame in me. good luck with the job induction!

That way the fish won't hit her while she is at work.

toujours said...

someone else will probably answer your question first martha, but here goes:

type "&"
then "hearts"
then ";"
all together like one word.

♥!

Anonymous said...

okay, my comment didn't make sense. I left out "you" Mj, to make those hearts, type in the "and" symbol above the 7 key, then type hearts, and then type the ; key



Anonymous said...

ha ha thanks for explaining that mj.
When you type the & button, you must press the shift button as well. I forgot to mention that.

Shame in me said...

ahahahaha you girls make me laugh. I dont know where being smacked in the face with a fish came from haha it just soundd like a good analogy at the time

To do a heart its & hearts ;but with no spaces :)

Runs towards MJ with an almighty Kipper
