Sunday Scribblings: Two Peas

I used to think we were like two peas in a pod.

We had this amazing connection. The way we were drawn together at all was something only the fates decided. We loved the same things. We felt the same way. We shared the same inclinations and personalities. We loved each other.

I wish I could just link you here. But I won't.

Why do I talk in past tense?

Because I am alone, and I am confused, and I am hurting.

And I sort of feel like that abandoned pea that is left stuck in the end of the pod after the rest have all been snapped free. I don't want to be snapped free yet.

In fact, I don't want to be snapped free anytime soon.

I'd prefer to stay right here in my pod, thankyou very much.

And I want to stay here, with my fellow pea by my side.

I don't want to be alone.

    I'm so sorry...I can feel the loneliness through every word you wrote, and I don't even know the story behind them.

    I hope things get better soon.

    I love the way you put that about feeling like the lone pea left in the pod and wanting to stay there. It really speaks so much. Here's to helping you through the loneliness, confusion and hurt.

    I'm so sorry, lone pea in pod. Your writing really goes to the core...

    As my post suggested, lone peas can grow. It just doesn't usually feel good. Been there.

    Sometimes I feel like the lone pea leftover in the pod, too. I imagine it is for different reasons, but the core feeling of loneliness is the same.

    Hang in there, and I will too!
