The Word God & Frantic with Craving ~ Ramblings of a Mad Woman

I like the word "God"
The word holds so much mystery
thousands of meanings
exponentially more stories
God is the focus of so many lives
Creating the lines that so many color within
I have rejected all of the lines
So a silver fluid of everything I am floating in
A mysterious plane of existence and non-existence
A duality I cannot reconcile
When I say the word God, I speak to so many
Each hearing in their individual languages
They believe that I believe the same
God - A term that connects and divides
Has brought peace to the individual and war to the masses
A theist's heaven, an atheist's joke, a pagan's earth
God or lack thereof creating the magnitude of discussion,
the center of it all

My longing, my desire
I keep myself busy and distracted all day
But when I slow down, I remember you
The sad glimmer in your eyes,
accented by a spark of enjoyment when you look at me
I cannot have you and it drives me frantic with craving
The warrior in me marching to war to win
But you will never let me win you over
... you why even try...?

It is not. Therefore I will not be. And so I will do.
I am aloof. I am estranged.
I will forget you,
.... At least I hope, anyways
