* Written by a heterosexual male adolescent so this may not be an experienced viewpoint but I believe we should what the Lord told us to do - 'Love one another'.
-
They look at me, burning into me this stigma,
As if I am some sort of enigma
Dangling dizzily from a shadowy vista.
No halo-angel is going to greet me
When the rust devours me.
So say these close-minded fucks
And by the rigid droves
Of automatons digging through gloomy groves.
I ain't in your way.
Yet I got hell to pay
For being myself.
Should I hurry off and go marry a woman,
Shack up,
And lie to her and lie to myself,
Make love to her with a love that isn't really there,
Lie to my children,
My grandchildren,
An entire generation of lies and liars?
Do you think they would deserve that?
Why torture me so?
'Cos I'm different?
Why?
Honestly, I need not know
Such animosity.
If you say no angel is going to greet me,
Then just leave me be,
Leave my soul to Hell
For amity.
