The nightmares have returned. I don't know what to do anymore.
It's like and endless sea of blood. What have I done to deserve
such torment?
June 24, 2003
They've returned again. I can hear the screaming and the
cries of anguish. I can see the ground bubbling over with
blood. Who do I turn to? Who can I confide in? I see Christian
running towards me, his hands in the air, "Daddy!"
he cries in happiness. There's a shot and Brittany is there,
holding the smoking gun. I scream in rage, my baby boy is
gone. I destroy Brittany and I am left alone, the crying and
the voices in my head. The calls of pain and torment subverting
all that is good and wonderful in my head. I awake, cold sweat
running down my face, my heart racing. Do I close my eyes
again?

Last night was one of those few nights that I didn't have
nightmares that were gruesome. It was just a simple nightmare
last night. One that woke me up screaming with cold sweats.
I saw Jas standing there, smiling at me. Smiling that flashy
smile, so charming and cute. And then there was a bright flash
of light and I was standing over a tomb-stone, crying. I don't
cry much. But last night was different. I cried. Even after
I woke up, I cried. Jas' name was on the tomb-stone. It reminds
me of a dream a very close friend was telling me about. I
didn't know what to do or to say. I don't think that it meant
anything. It was just something scarey. I guess it was just
a fear I have. I'd hate to loose Jas. I've lost so much in
my life, I don't want to loose Jas. A very good, mutual, friend
of ours did something stupid, and - to me - something selfish.
It hurt another of our friends alot and there wasn't anything
I could do about it. I told him, though, how I felt about
the situation. I think I was too harsh. I haven't heard from
him or Jas since I last sent that e-mail. But wait, that's
not entirely true. Jas sent me a txt on my cell phone yesterday
about noon. I didn't realize I had it. And my day was pretty
shitty until I read the txt. I smiled and felt better. My
boss wanted me to come in to work yesterday. I told him I'd
close for him around 5. So....that really means I'd clock
in at 5 pm and not clock out until close to 11 pm. I had an
appointment to keep, so I kept it. I called him back after
the appointment and asked him if he still needed me to come
in. He told me he didn't. So, I thought that was pretty cool.
I got my hair cut yesterday. <sigh> I don't know what
causes my nightmares. Fear....depression.....selfishness.
I don't know. I miss Jas. I wish he were here. But I understand
why he can't be here right now. I love Jas alot....and I hope
he comes home, safely, soon.

I still haven't heard word from him. I'm worried about him.
My nightmares got worse last night and I don't know what to
do about them. I can feel, now, the pain of those screams
that I hear in my head. My cold sweats become colder and colder,
and my head aches when I awaken in the morning. What should
I do? Hope? Pray? What if God doesn't hear me.....?
June 28, 2003
I'm worried about him. No word in, going on, four days. I
hope all is well. I bought him something. I hope he likes
it. The nightmares continue, getting more and more graphic
as the nights go on. I awaken, cold and shivering. Eye's wide
with fear. What should I do?
July 1, 2003
I think my baby called me last night. I'm not sure. It was
so strange. Only my Lil' Sis' and my X would call me from
a "PRIVATE" number. And....my X didn't
call me. My Lil' Sis' didn't either. And it wasn't telemarketer's....they
show up as "Unknowns". I hope it was him. He didn't
say anything to me...I'm so worried about him. I miss and
love him more than I do my own life. And I mean it. I can't
explain why I love him. I just do. When I think of him, everything
seems just.....so perfect. I used to think that about my X.
But...no. With Jas, there's something different. There's something
about him. I love him for who he is and I don't care what
anyone else thinks. I just wish he was home. Jas, if you're
reading this, please come home.
July 2, 2003
Sadness overwhelmed me today. I didn't let anyone see it.
I'm torn between.....realities. I keep hoping my phone will
blow up and I'll answer it and there will be his voice. Telling
me everything is alright. But then, I find this pretty girl
at summer school. She's smart, she's funny. She likes me.
And I don't know what to do about it. I think of all the things
I've done in my life, and I wonder about everything else.
I love Jas, and I hope he's ok. I want him to come home, for
good. I don't mean to be so selfish...but....I just want to
give him everything. I want him to know that I'm his. And...I'm
affraid he won't come home. Then where will I be? What do
I do? Seek guidance from an omnipotent being who probably
doesn't even give a rats ass about me because of the way I
am? Or....do I seek his guidance and realize that he loves
me regardless?
July 3, 2003
What shall I do? I've lost almost everything. All I have
is my little sister, and no one else to share my pain with.
What shall I do?
July 4, 2003
I finally slept last night. After eight days of non-stop
movement and action, I finally got some sleep. My body feels
refreshed. Knowing my life, I'll go another eight days before
I sleep. I sent a final letter to Jas. Well....it's not really
a final letter. It's a letter of how I felt. Maybe things
will be ok. I miss him, and I will wait for him, but I will
not stop living my life. As he asked me not to stop living.
So, I'll keep going and hope that I get word from him from
time to time. I'll see others and do about my business as
usual. Normally, I wouldn't obsess over someone for this long.
But, then again, I get to thinking and I realize that I'm
not obsessing. I'm loving and caring. So, we shall see how
things fall. It's the Fourth of July, and here I sit, smiling
over sad times. I realize they will get better. I hope they
get better soon.
July 5, 2003
I woke up this morning at 5:30, screams wailing through my
head. The nightmares have returned, and there's no one around
that could possibly fathom how badly I feel when I have them.
It hurts my head. I've come to the conclusion that I haven't
a clue as to what I'm going to do about anything in life.
I had wierd dreams. If that's what they could be called. A
friend of mine had come over to my house, his father had come
with him. He made it very clear that nothing funny was supposed
to happen. I made it clear to him nothing funny would happen.
I'm gay, not an asshole. Either way. The only thing I'm sure
on is the Marine Corps. I know it sounds silly, but the "Don't
ask, don't tell." policy was enstated for people like
me. For those who have an undying lust to serve their country
and do the things no one else wants to do. Well, that's me.
I want to be a Hunter. And anyone who knows the military would
understand what a Hunter does. Especially for the Marine Corps.
After I'm through with the Marine Corps, I'll probably become
a U.S. Marshal. Who knows, right?
July 7, 2003
Should I tell him? I don't know. My nightmares are getting
worse. I don't know what to do about any of it. I'm scared
and I won't burden my little sister anymore with my problems.
It's time I was strong again. If not for myself, but for those
that I must protect.
July 19, 2003
I can't take it. I don't understand. Why does my heart ache
so much? Why do I feel like dying? Who is there for me to
turn to? My little sister can't help me all my life. I know
she wants to, and seeks to always be there for me. But....am
I coward for not doing it myself? Am I coward for not standing
on my own two feet? What happens next?
July 25, 2003
What's next? Life's bitter-sweet irony has bitten deeply
into my heart and seemingly ripped it from my chest with little
difficulty. I've sated the governements thirst for blood.....for
now. And I've done things I'm sure to regret. But who is there
to talk to that would understand? Who is there to talk to
who will put there arms around me and still love me no matter
what sort of horrible things I've done? I have no boyfriend,
at least, I don't think I do. And my little sister cant help
me shoulder everything. Who else is there?
July 29, 2003
The screams have returned. It seems there is no hope.
