Why Wait

I have no faith
in Humanity nor Divinity
A harlot, sacrilege 
Yet fate still smiles on me.

Forked tongues and sharpened lies
Light the way to the
Church on Sunday

And I sigh, never
Content nor obliged
To yield or die.

A vagabond for always,
A forest in her eyes,
A prick at her heart and then
A leak til it's dark

It starts
And I wait,
Half our lives 
Eaten by sleep
And the other half
By waiting. 

It lingers
Yet never returns,
Shadow memory
Of a lost
epiphany.
