i shook hands with my priest and he told me god would listen to me after years of talking to myself, i gave up if this is the result of a benevolent lord, i want no part in such cruelty every day spent suffering in this godless existence is another flirtation with the devil's temptations; he hands me independence and assurance that this universe has no explanations and in exchange i lose the love i might've had for myself for a god or for life or for anyone
it's not that i need a god to explain it or to comfort me it's that they lied when they told me a ghost was worth devoting my life to
i don't want anybody to try and convince me to "find faith", okay, this entire thing is a metaphor for things i'm going through yes, i did used to be a part of a catholic church and yes i did abandon religious practice, that is true, but this is still a metaphor
