Love is Love

I love her.

She is everything to me.

The thing that makes my world go round.

But I am a girl too.

 

I love him.

He is my heart and soul.

My everything!

But I am a boy too.

 

We get called f*g.

People say that we are wrong for being who we are.

Some people judge us.

Most don't undertsand us.

But we are who we are.

I agree with you we are who we are I'm not gay or what ever people want to call it but i look at all people the same no matter their sexual preference. you love who you love. who am I or anybody else to look down upon or judge someone for loving anybody for that matter race same sex or whatever it maybe but simple minded people do. but they're not great gods to cast judgement on anybody. I say love who you're going to love and be happy in your life you're living, no matter what anybody says not even your loved ones if they love you they'll be happy you're happy. Sorry I'm rambling again keep writing fellow writer

Just let them be them I don't really care as long as it doesn't affect my love for rainbows!

haha thanks for the review(:

Being bisexual, this hits home. A LOT. I've been called a f*g, I've been told to be put in a mental hospital. No one deserves to be treated this way.

Excellent poem, Leslie :)

i love this poem... its simlpe but as a big meaning... nice job

Leslie, I agree with the other comments below that this is an amazing poem with a major and powerful message behind it. I really like the different colors to represent the girl's and boy's point of view on their same sex love.Yes, love is simply love! Sadly, in this messed up cruel world we can't love whomever we want without people pointing fingers or acting as if those people are mutts. It's not only sexual disorientation, it's also race and religion. Around small towns, such as ours, loving the same sex or dating someone with a different race is messed up to them. Then they're considered outsiders. There are luckily states that people can go to, to have more freedom with their issues with the predjuiceness. It sucks to escape instead when they can have freedom in any state. I think it's good to let people do whatever they want or love whoever. Though my faith really strongly opposes all of this. Since God first made Adam and Eve, man and woman. I agree with you and I'm absolutely straight! You made a clear point! :)

"Some people judge us.
Most don't understand us.
But we are who we are."
-- See that's what I don't understand. As Christians, we're not supposed to judge others. And look, they go out in the world and pick out every little detail of someone.

I love this poem. I hate it here in OK where most people are insensitive to alot of things including this subject. I'm glad to see others acknowledging love is love, no matter if it's same sex or not.

[Secret Lullaby]

Thank you! And I live in a small town in Alabama so people here LOVE to judge people that are different then everyone else

[David the writer]

Ugh hate people like that, and I live with two of em! Your welcome, this reminds me I need to write on this subject

[Secret Lullaby]

Yeah I know what thats like! Oh cool!

[David the writer]

Yeah, after I say so much against same sex discrimination I suppose it's only expected. And I have to deal with even more than just with parents. Funny, they don't know I'm Bi

[Secret Lullaby]

wow same for me!

[David the writer]

Crazy, isn't it? People just can't be happy with who people are.

[Secret Lullaby]

I guess things never change

[David the writer]

Not when you're deity doesn't apparantly

[Secret Lullaby]

yep
