I've never believed in 'I don't know' and 'oh well' but it was almost a perpensity to say those things around matters concerning her.
She lit the fire and then blew it out ...
... I don't know.
Oh well.
This is me rambling:
You know when someone tells you something early on, and they make it seem as though it was just a passing thought, a ripple in their brain; somehow not far down the road that ripple has taken shape only to leave them acting as though it just happened. That 'happening' escalates into something of your fault-you drove them, you pushed them, you angered them, so they say.
The funny thing is, I've experienced a lot; probably more than I should, so this conversation isn't new. It has that old familiarity about it. That smell or taste that takes you back to a moment, like a childhood memory you thought you had misplaced and forgotten.
The conversation is maddening. You recall saying those exact words to someone to save face, to cover your ass. You recall someone other than you grasping at any type of complete sentence to articulate that same argument.
You knew it all before they even spit it out-you caught it in the air long ago. And yet people think, they fucking think they're unique to the situation, to your emotions, to your actions. I've sought out unique, only to come up with similarity plagued by the same checkerboard pattern over and over again.
I've flatlined.
And damn does it feel good.
I wonder if after all the arguing with one, all the spontaneity with another, all the business mixed with some enjoyment whether or not I am still capable of having a intelligent conversation with someone who I would consider a stranger.
People do come and go, yes. The ones who go can be surprising.
