Intrusive thoughts.. More?
Intrusive thoughts to the point of vomiting.
They were at an all time high as I drove to the garage so he could get his car. Who would have expected that!
The next day it was something else... Suberbicon.
And each time is a walk through Hell for me.
In the end I came up with this, I throw stones at the image in my mind. I imagine myself in the car with them, or back in her kitchen looking at her Suberbicon glasses. I know I'm powerless, but I can express my pain and rage by smashing the picture.
The pile of stones is by my right hand, and I throw and watch the picture shatter as if that is all it is.
Suberbicon glasses?
Yeah, the dad in the film, she had the same glasses... I watched the film partitioning my mind. One half had a grip on the present, the other half was there suddenly I see the colouring in paper from our home, in her kitchen. An expression of their love, she loves him so much this paper is precious... My blood is boiling but I rationalise. Never a good move.
Smashing the image is all I have.
Talking about it elicits defensiveness and anger, then catastrophic distancing ; cold, black rage. Then I will start to wail inside. Crumple into a hurt mess of Despair. Then I am weeping and pleading, saying "be on my side".
Smashing the image is my only trick.
