I Confess To You Confliction

I Confess To You Confliction is a book of poems written as testimony, confession, and refusal. These poems speak directly to God without reverence performance and without resolution. They confront faith as something endured rather than practiced, question obedience as a substitute for love, and treat doubt not as failure but as evidence of devotion that has been pushed past its limits. This collection does not seek to reconcile belief with comfort.
It interrogates prayer after hope has thinned, worship in the absence of response, and the violence of being told not to question what governs your life. God appears here not as an answer, but as a presence repeatedly addressed and rarely heard. Written in long, confrontational forms; sermons, catechisms, anti-prayers, and confessions, these poems refuse the language of reassurance. They challenge religious authority, inherited faith, and the demand for silence placed on those who remain without certainty.
This is not a book about losing God. It is a book about refusing to pretend. I Confess To You Confliction is for readers who have stayed when belief fractured, who still kneel even while asking why, and who understand that faith does not survive because it is protected, but because it refuses to stop speaking.
