The Web Poetry Corner - Daniel Bradbury - Faithless, Not Without Faith

Faithless, Not Without Faith

by

Daniel Bradbury

I’ve always been yours, faithlessly
Forgive what I’ve become, tragically
Because despite what you think
Everything I’ve done was done for you

You are a thorn in my side
but the luck of my eyes
I carry a faulty faith
in failing fate
No justice among us
like a "Lustless Prophecy"
It's all a fallacy of an untuned mind,
I am set between channels in a land of romance and love
by myself

It's all full moon
hormone
Dull mood
lone moan
Hormone whore moans

I've tried screaming intentions from rooftops,
but in my antic attics I lose my balls
and go soft
and angry

The sting and slash
of backhand backlash welts my eyes and streaks cheeks of lonely movie goers
Wanderers of fictional lives of love
Places where my heart could inspire unhesitating devotion
where one would be enough,
where settling down is trading up
just another place where I get fucked
because reality always calls me back
and there I'm just lonely and lack

So, in my own hands is placed my fate
and I procrastinate and wait an wait
only to shuck it off
"Fuck it all"
I control it all,
I've seen it all
I am it all
And you are sea foam bubbles
Tossing and turning
Here and there yearning to go deeper than shallow charm

Kissing the barrel of a gun, to try to remember the touch of lips
but the gun is warmer, more loving than anything I can remember
and I surrender to cowardice
A powerhouse left powerless
I am diverted, dismayed and perverted
And waking up is not an option but a must
Loving angels disguised as lust tempt me to altars of pawns in bust

I've always been yours, faithlessly.
