  • I hadn't listened to

    by artemisagrotera on April 30, 2012

    your most recent songs since the last show. I was afraid it would remind me of how out of control crazy I had been, and I'd had enough of feeling ashamed for a while. But I just smoked some weed (which I hardly ever do anymore) and listened to it again twice, right after the thunderstorm. I'm still high as fuck. But I had put out of my mind, probably intentionally, just how amazingly good it is. I hope that people appreciate it as much as I do. I'm sure they must.

    Here's my dumb super-high stoner analysis/commentary: Really good music will either cause you to experience whatever emotion was put into it, or at least whatever emotion the creator is trying to express. It will also make any person who listens feel as though it were written just for or just about them. Here's a ridiculous and I'm sure, quite obvious confession: I like to pretend (I'm probably not alone; I'm sure several girls in our circle of friends feel this way) that it is a love letter. Hearing it makes me feel like I just got one, anyway.

    I don't like being high and trying to write, because it sounds either childishly earnest or just hyperbolic and ridiculous. But it feels like you are reaching into me. Direct hit to the heart and root chakras. You hooked me, you can reel me in. Except I get the impression you'd rather have me come to you.

    The music is an excellent surrogate for now--it makes me feel what I wish I could feel from you more often in person. But I would rather have you next to me. Can we go walk in the woods or have a picnic or something? Or just watch movies at your place? I'm not sure how to get away with it, but I would like to spend a whole day and night with you. I would have kept you warm in your tent. I mean that innocently, earnestly, and out of love and concern, no innuendo intended.

    I hope this doesn't look completely ridiculous in the morning, because I'd rather not delete it

    does not encourage me to seek you out. It tells me you want me to leave you the fuck alone. If that is what you want, fine, but please stop playing games with me. Perhaps that is what you mean, and I'm wasting my time. This does not feel very good

    what I thought I saw was actually meant for me, and that you really meant those things, because otherwise this is going to be an exercise in pain and humility

  • I've been trying to write for days

    by artemisagrotera on April 18, 2012
    but nothing makes sense. I have plenty more to explain, but I wanted at least to say that even in the worst-case scenario--if we tried and failed--I would still want to be your friend. I want to help you and I want you to feel like you can tell me anything. I'm saying this because (I think that) you said you didn't want to lose me. I don't think it is possible for you to lose me, because I want to be there in some capacity no matter what happens. Unless you decide you don't want me around. I think I should probably just call or text you because I'm not sure that any of what I just wrote makes sense. I feel like there is an added dimension to our communication in person. Maybe that would work better. In the meantime, I will keep trying to explain here.
