There’s a life in the center of the room that is vacated the moment you come alive to this world and all its dictators, all its follies. As you reach for protection, you find it accompanied by the deepest and most dark betrayal. It’s a betrayal less of sentiment and more of disdain. How could I reach for you to start with, when you were just as inept, just as insecure?
The lure of temptation is great as we leave the box of infidelity, woefully displayed through courage of a thousand men who haunt our days and leave us breathless at night; hoping for something more, hoping for something else, when God and its intelligence is all there is, as we get to yet again reach into its depths and find our longing in the belly of a woman so gentle and so serene that every lost man yearns for her, and every child longs for her name, her caress, her sanctuary.
