Don't fight for your gay.

Just read it thats all i want to say.

Don't fight for your gay



Why is being homosexual not nice?
Because bible says its a vice
Who wrote the bible?
I ask with submissive intent,
he says Shepherds,physicians and doctors,
Were those men god?
I inquire facetiously,
No, but they were inspired by lord.


those fanatics says that we have sinned,
but their beloved book says one more thing,
person with no sin may carve the first stone,
have you never commited a sin I ask?
A straight sullen face is all they got.
We have been here since ages,
So why is it taking so long to get over it,
From mughals to milk,
We were there in historys every ink.

We never demanded for extra rights,
So why does it have to be a fight?
We live in the year 2014,
it's a shame i still have to write this thing.

Author's Note

evemthough i am not homosexual,i feel a strong affinity towards the gay community...i have been wanting to write something for a while but no topic excited me to pick a pen up...so i waited....now after a few months and doing some research on the matter both online and offline i have come up with this...i have not written this to change your beliefs on this matter but start a debate for those who think this is unnatural and then decide for yourself.

Ps: this is not targetted specially against any specific religion.It is just pitted against our own our understanding of our fellow brothers and sisters.

I love it! Being gay myself I thank you for being open minded and believing in change for a community you aren't in- I respect you! I love the poem, the 3rd stanza provoked a 'f**k yeah' response from me. I loved the link to History, I thought about the countless homosexual writings from the world war poets- true greats! Thanks again for speaking out loud and sharing something you believe in, I hope this inspires others!

Christian people confuse me. They speak of love and acceptance. The true faces that I always seem to find reveal them to be a contradictory lot.

I have Faith, but I have never chosen a religious denomination. No religion has gotten it right as far as I'm concerned.

I've had too many "we as good Christians" bigots to last me a lifetime.

A group of them removed a very special person who was once in my life. Then had the audacity to act like they all were my friends.

They ran her off. Normally, I don't care what anyone thinks about me. But her opinion mattered.
She left...without a word...

The bisexual single mother...she left...

And it was revealed that they enjoyed that she was being made to feel miserable.

That they all noticed how she and I were together.

And that they didn't want me going anywhere, so they thought it best if she were out of the picture.

THAT'S SICK.

I decided....they don't deserve to have me in their lives.

"Sometimes people don't deserve to have you"

And I walked away from the last 12 years of my life.

My 12th year...and she came along. And these people would show their true colors, the faces hidden behind the masks.

They would try and convince me of their "friendship".

"We liked you better before you changed. Before you met her."

I disagree. I like me better as I am now. And that's because of her.
She was no mistake...

I miss that person...more than words could ever explain.
I keep Faith that, since entwined destiny occurred, we meet again...

I am so proud of her and the future path that she is now on. As I am on mine as well.

I'm glad she came into my life. I am overjoyed that I could help guide her to a better future for her daughter and herself.


Intolerant of Gay? Go away!


My heart does not discriminate.
All are welcome here.

over the years I had to learn tolerance because I grew up in a Christian based household and later abandoned that and became a Muslim which both condemn homosexuality. I learned that I do not have a heaven or a hell to put people in therefore I have learned to accept people on their own terms. Who am to judge? Who am I to confine when I don't have the key. At the end of the day people are people period.

Yes exactly dude :)

[tiajam]

So great and carries a great point

[Andrew Dane Parker]

I'm so glad there are people like you who are not afraid to say what they believe in. This poem was amazing.

[Chandler bing]

Thanks spidey :)

[Terpsichore]

There is no sin in loving, only in persecution of any kind. T

[Charleen Langley]

I like it, and I'm glad that more people are beginning to understand that being bi/les/gay/whateverfloatsyourboat isn't bad.

[Gee]

Live and let live,that should be the way of the world.

[Chandler bing]

Gee(z) I know :)

Ok.. if I didn't read the author's note I would've thought you were gay. And after reading it, I respect you even more. A very emotional and thought provoking piece and yes, it makes my heart ache that even need to 'fight' for it. Very unique in style and structure. Wonderful.

A hard topic. My step-brother is gay and been with one pardner for 30 plus years. I don't believe I have any right to say what is right or wrong. He send money to my kids and helped the family often. This is what is important. The important part of life is knowing what you want and living a life with concern and love as your goals. A powerful poem.
