What I Believe (A Poem On Homosexuality)

by Morgan   Aug 7, 2004


Why do they say there's something wrong?
That I can't love her like I do
Why is it so horrible to love someone of the same sex?
When I know that our love is true

I'll stand up for what I believe in
Whether they say it's wrong or right
I'll risk my life for love
I'm prepared to put up a fight

Because I know my opinion
And I'll state the facts
Love is shared between two people
There's nothing it lacks

Well maybe we can't have sex
Like guys and girls can
But we can find ways to pleasure
So what's wrong with a man being with a man?

You say it's not ?normal?
But again I'll ask What Is The Definition Of Normal
I know I love her
So why is this so horrible

I'll stand up against millions
Who think I'm wrong
Because what I believe in
Is so strong

I understand that it's against your religion
For me to want a wife
But I ask you to accept my differences
Because we only have one life

And I know you might never
See this through my eyes
But I know how I feel
About the topic of homosexual girls and guys

So whether you like it or not
What I am, I will not hide
Because I know I'm beautiful
For telling you exactly how I feel inside

    It's great to see someone taking such a strong stand on the issue. I completely support you. Homosexulatiy should be more widely accepted than it is right now. Lets hope that one day equality will be more than just a word and people will finally be able to live the way they were supposed to instead of hiding something so normal, yet so odd and unacceptable.

    You know, I really wish I paid more attention to the t.v show I was watching the other day. There was this great latin phrase that meant 'don't let the bastards grind you down'. I guess it's better I only remember the english, that way you know what I mean.

    Anyways, I really did enjoy your poem. I'm a lesbian, so you know, I know about what the poem was trying to talk about.
