denial-of-feelings

In a matter of moments, I awakened to a life that wasn__ mine. It was like peering into a dark hidden world that I wasn__ supposed to know about and that my mind didn__ want to believe existed.

HE didn't realize she was his everything until he gave her up for everything else.

False reasons trapped in your old bean. Failure isn't your nemesis, denial of truth is.

The world could use more love. Why deny it to others?

What does love mean if we would deny it to others?

Apparently, denial isn't just a river in Egypt.

Denial has rented a room in my head and frequently stomps around slamming doors.

Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear so don't look and they'll stay farther away than you expect they would.

I see how it is,_ I snapped. __ou were all in favor of me breaking the tattoo and thinking on my own__ut that__ only okay if it__ convenient for you, huh? Just like your __oving from afar_ only works if you don__ have an opportunity to get your hands all over me. And your lips. And_._._. stuff.__drian rarely got mad, and I wouldn__ quite say he was now. But he was definitely exasperated. __re you seriously in this much self-denial, Sydney? Like do you actually believe yourself when you say you don__ feel anything? Especially after what__ been happening between us?___othing__ happening between us,_ I said automatically. __hysical attraction isn__ the same as love. You of all people should know that.___uch,_ he said. His expression hadn__ changed, but I saw hurt in his eyes. I__ wounded him. __s that what bothers you? My past? That maybe I__ an expert in an area you aren__?___ne I__ sure you__ just love to educate me in. One more girl to add to your list of conquests.__e was speechless for a few moments and then held up one finger. __irst, I don__ have a list._ Another finger, __econd, if I did have a list, I could find someone a hell of lot less frustrating to add to it._ For the third finger, he leaned toward me. __nd finally, I know that you know you__e no conquest, so don__ act like you seriously think that. You and I have been through too much together. We__e too close, too connected. I wasn__ that crazy on spirit when I said you__e my flame in the dark. We chase away the shadows around each other. Our backgrounds don__ matter. What we have is bigger than that. I love you, and beneath all that logic, calculation, and superstition, I know you love me too. Running away and fleeing all your problems isn__ going to change that. You__e just going to end up scared and confused.___ already feel that way,_ I said quietly.Adrian moved back and leaned into his seat, looking tired. __ell, that__ the most accurate thing you__e said so far.__ grabbed the basket and jerked open the car door. Without another word, I stormed off, refusing to look back in case he saw the tears that had inexplicably appeared in my eyes. Only, I wasn__ sure exactly which part of our conversation I was most upset about.

Do you know what I see in you now? The usual aura. A steady golden yellow, healthy and strong, with spikes of purple here and there. But when I do this. . . .__e rested a hand on my hip, and my whole body tensed up. That hand moved around my hip, slipping under my shirt to rest on the small of my back. My skin burned where he touched me, and the places that were untouched longed for that heat.. The colors deepen, it burns more intensely, the purple increases. Why? Why, Sydney?_ He used that hand on me to pull me closer. __hy do you react that way if I don__ mean anything to you?_ There was a desperation in his voice, and it was legitimate.
