I miss the love that MDMA use to bring me. Its been nearly 7 years since I first tried ecstasy. I never abused, I have probably rolled around 48 times since I first started. (Thats 4x a year)
I use to remember rolling so hard during my earlier years. My whole body would feel like it was exploding with love and harmony. It felt like a supernova of energy radiating from within my spirit.
I would have told anyone the truth about anything. There were no barriers. There was only honesty, and empathy. I felt loved to say the least.
People I associate with have changed over the years...one thing is constant -
everyone loves raves, and everyone rolls. Most of us are responsible...but rolling aint what it use to be...much of that empathy and honesty has been replaced with what I feel to be artificial. Now a days, no one every really means what they say, and no one ever follows through with the things they say they'll do.
I took E a month ago with a girl I had been with for 6 months. It was at a real cool massive rave and the music and lights were incredible....plus me and this girl were rolling together for the first time...I felt those butterflies inside my chest...they were glowing. I hadn't felt this was in years! And we hadn't even taken our pills yet!
So we both take our pills and get a bit anxious while coming up...coudnt really decide which stage to dance at and ended up around the event a lot for the first 45 min or so.
Then it his me. I start coming up. She saw and looked me in the eyes and kissed me. I once again felt alive from MDMA...and something I knew wasn't artificial. I felt complete.
We dance for awhile...gazing at one another with complete confidence... Completely blissful and entranced by the crowd around us...
Not a care in the world. This is what heaven must feel like.
But only for a moment.
After a warm and long embrace, I told her I would be back in 5 min with water. I looked into her eyes one last time and quickly made my way to the water stand. These crowds at massives are thick...especially when your up front in the center of the DJ.
Finally I make my way out of the massive sea of people, and into clean cool fresh air. It feels incredible in my lungs. I take time to enjoy it.
But not too much time. After I had the water in hand I quickly raced back into the crowd. Pushing past drugged out kids and fake scene kids. The closer you get to the front of the crowd the better the vibes are in my opinion. Plus its fun to watch Armin Van Burren smiling.
I stand on my toes to search for her. This is impossible. There are 1000s of people and I cant even move. But suddenly intuition kicks in. I use common sense, retrace my steps.
I catch a glance. I see her. Wait is it really her?"
No. It cant be.
This girl is making out with another guy. That cant be her I told myself...
Suddenly I feel anti-matter in my chest...suddenly all the roll I was feeling was sucked away. Pulled inside of the void of my own heart. My roll was gone.
She was going at it with some other dude.
I ran out of the crowd. I wanted to leave...but I rode with her.
Ill spare you all the details...but I met up with her an hour later....after I collected myself and worked up the courage to go up to her.
And she looks at me...she smiles and looks at me with the same gaze as before. The gaze of innocence and love. And then a sad puppy dog face.
"Where were you? I looked everywhere !" she exclaimed
She looks at me like nothing ever happened.
"I must have got lost I said" unable to bring myself to confront her on the issue.
Angels are excellent liars
I was unable to talk to her about it for the rest of the night...all I wanted was to have a great night and I wasnt going to let this incident change that. Ill deal with it later.
So..
What happened to the empathy of E these days?
Why could I not be comfortable enough to confront her on E?
How is someone able to lie on E?
Can E bring out the dark side of some people just as it brings out the side of light for most of us?
Dont know what Im more fed up with at this point-The fact that E hasn't been as real as I thought, or the fact that I've wasted all this time with it..
Perhaps the cycle of the drug is similar to the stages of a roll.
-Swallow(Introduction)
-Come up (First time)
-Peak (honeymoon period)
-Plateau (slow down period)
-Comedown (end of the magic)
