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!

I think you did good to make a poem with this subject. We are all humans, and I'm sure there are bad and good people between all kinds of types of men and women. If we are straight or gay, it doesn't matter because we all need love and understanding. I know gay people, there is even a couple in my family, I never thought they were different. They have even shared their love with two children. Perfect, isn't it? Very well done. :) Rudi

I agree. The Bible was written by humans; flawed humans prone to prejudice. Really, what perfect, benevolent being would condemn an act of love, of any kind, to being an 'abomination'? And how is it not natural? Sure, it doesn't result in children, but it's even happening in the animal kingdom!
Normally, I'm fine with religion. It's a comfort for many people, and trying to take that from them is cruel. But when religious people act out their faith through dangerously outdated ways of thinking or prejudice beliefs, then it's not alright. No matter who you are or what your faith tells you, it is never alright to discriminated against and hurt others. I'm glad you understand.
