false pretense

unable to –

un-feel,

forget,

dismiss…

unable to un-know!

how is it – life,

my friend?

how does it – feel –

to feel?

is there really a difference

between night,

and merely the absence of light?

desperately –

i cling –

to words,

un-said.

tread water much too deep to swim –

consume my thoughts with

imagined – resolution…

saved?

forgiven?

by whose authority?

i understand the contrast

between right –

wrong;

your – judgement –

however –

exacerbates my un-intent!
