denial
2004-11-13 8:37 am

i depended on your "helplessness" and fragility to maintain my identity as strong, nurturing and capable.

in truth, i am fragile and hurt. i have emotions that dont fit with this image of myself as strength and peace.

i let you choose which emotions i could display, which emotions you were most comfortable seeing.

i needed to see you as kind and loving and selfless in order to believe you werent cruel and selfish.

my horoscope for today said that sometimes i can be such an optimist that i am in denial.
