Faithless We are , but faithless creatures. With a pitchfork of lust, our eyes wander from fickle hearts and self depreciating impulses. Our veins jump and our insides pulsate with the prospect of new faces, arousing… the worst in us. Shamelessly, I want I want I want, something else, something better, something bigger, something, more that you can’t give me (fidelity) because I never had it myself (has anyone?) There are too many possibilities, when you realize your soldier ant position in the world. We live in an entire colony of indistinction, how can anyone tell what you have going on the side as long as you stick to the routine? Really, who isn’t available, when you stop to think? Fidelity, what a funny word, to drive an entire race from it’s instincts. It’s an improbable proposition, at best. A sentence of life, A promise, to one body out of a billion. It’s a consumer driven promotion, like romance, it’s a big red button in an empty room you cannot help but to oblige as though you may never have another chance. Will your head never turn? Will your skin never beat between your legs like a deep bass, never… saturate like dew beading over a leaf, for a stranger? Is it realistic to think…. all that, gold plate it and then tie it around your finger like a vaccination? Has anyone, ever really, been faithful, when the line between _____flirtation______ and _____cheating______ is easier to run outside than a black line with a crayon. When, eye contact can say more than intercourse long before the conversation ever, enters in. She looks at me and I am ravaging her in my thoughts, like I didn’t know where she belongs or that I have turned into the incarnate of my perpetrators, after all. I am… a bad person, I am a bad friend, ravaging her in my thoughts… I am, no better than them. I find myself like a cross-eyed contradiction, catering to the id. Lustful and faithless, I am… only human. I look at her, impure as my thoughts, reaching with shackled hands and sealed lips. I am, keeping my actions in check while her eyes wander fickle and impulsive, into mine. We are… but faithless creatures, testing human nature… And they say everything, is a matter of time… |

Uh oh, do I see trouble brewing? Enjoyed the write, the gutwrenching honesty. Surrounded by temptation, what will you do? No need to answer that Q. |

O if only sex wasnt so frowned upon!!!!! Answer this question for me.. how come we are allowed to see bloody villence on tv but we cant even see a decent pair of naked breasts??? WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH A LITTLE SEX????????? Dont let tha bother you, man. I ravage hundreds of women in my thoughts daily and I'm proud of it. Stand up for your manhood! I have sent you nothing but angels, and I have placed nothing but miracles before you. |

Being faithless is what kills most people. I don't agree with you, but I can't deny the quality of personal truth in here either... [This message has been edited by GOlDsparklESS (11-16-2002 12:36 PM).] |

(big hugggssssssss) I don't think it is that we are faithless, but rather that we try too hard experimenting with ways to improve all our lives and we only get in more trouble, and the obstacles themselves are what we feel faithless to yet as we brainstorm for alternatives we have no choice but to give in, so it's more like we're ignorant! (sigh) This is powerful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
