I'm thinking about 
my mom
& WHAT I can do to
NOT FEEL anything about her
LIKE 

there's no neutral 

as SOON as I THINK about her
I have all this
STUFF 

I don't believe she has
EVER
just done something for LIKE 
MY well being
I think anything she's done for me
was self motivated 
LIKE 
EVEN if it helped me 
I think she did it 
to GET something OUT of me
even if it was just to
HAVE something 
OVER me

I don't believe she
KNOWS me
or UNDERSTANDS me at ALL 

she wants me to
ENTERTAIN her
BUT 
she doesn't CARE isn't interested in 
WHAT I have to SAY

NONE of THIS is even REMOTELY helpful 

I've been trying to treat her like some
person I just met
in order to
TRY
to not feel all this f*CKing
BAGGAGE

BUT 
it's not WORKING 
I mean it IS
BUT 
NOT ENOUGH 

I am not spending time thinking 
about the specific things 
she's done in the past
it's just the
LACK of
ANYTHING 
POSITIVE 
& then
all the bullsh*t

I FEEL like 
there should be a WAY
to TURN this stuff 
OFF

BUT 
EVEN the REALIZATION that 
I don't LOVE her
is HARD for me SOMEHOW 

I think
SOMETIMES 
that what it needs is just become 
SO ANNOYING 
& incompetent from her perspective 
that she just doesn't want to be around me 
BUT 
THAT
SEEMS like 
A LOT of WORK 

I FEEL WEIRD having these thoughts 

I DO
FEEL like 
I'mma NEED to get a handle on THIS 

& I probably need to see her
TOMORROW 
or FRIDAY 

I've been running through 
THINGS that WORKED for me on the ROAD 

& I feel like 
PLANNING was important 
BUT 
SO was being in the MOMENT 

AND
I BELIEVE in the
POWER of
TREATING someone AS THOUGH they were the
WAY you want them to be

if it's BETTER than they actually are 
BUT 
I haven't seen evidence that it works with her
& I WONDER if 
THAT
is a BIG problem 

LIKE 
IF
I could TREAT her
LIKE 
I believed she really 
LOVED me

BUT 
I've KINDA MOVED on to this
POSITION where
I want to be
UNDERSTOOD 

& THAT puts her
even further
BEHIND 

& THIS 
is all thinkier that I WANT to BE


hmmmmm
