Consider Blasphemy

Consider blasphemy-

before you condemn me to

the waters of your solitude

and send me unprotected

into the high tide of your stormy sea

do I mean so little to you-

that you would desecrate all we had

without a moments hesitation?

hurl my name among the piles of

strangers that rummage solemnly

along the outskirts of your mind

without a second glance?

if ever you doubted me-

consider this a reason

for my attitude of neglect

the result of you casting me aside

so disposable was I?

that you failed to notice the beauty

in imperfection

as I did

when I witnessed the darker side

of a good man

constantly reminding myself that

a picture can tell a thousand lies

cursing the root of insecurity

unearthing forgiveness for sacrilege-

your act of erasing me so easily

you did not fight for the rarity

that we once were

instead you hid

behind irreverent actions

the ones I thought to be deceptive

but which I now

Consider truth-
