Gay rights

I must engage in a relationship

The world demands consistency.

But what if I deny the norms?

Am I to be thrown in dust?

I don’t like love like you

That asks and demands from the different one

I know it is hard to understand my emotions

But does that mean I am less of a human?

I too feel the adversity of storms

I too get disturbed and hurt.

My needs are different

Should I have no rights to express?

I know it’s the difference

That becomes the cause of fight,

But what is my choice

When I know I am not the same.

I want peace and pace

I will make up in my race

I want to feel comfort at heart,

Please hear me as I am.

Yes, I am a gay

But then is it all that I say

I love my motherland

I respect her pride.

I know there is reason to rejoice

When comfort comes from Divine,

Please listen to my obedience

In all else but not one.

Accept me as I am

I am also of human race,

Your neighbor and friend

I too wish to serve my motherland.

My deeds also educate

Life is a great place,

Let’s not fight on differences

We are born to love and live.
