What's Wrong with Him?
I need a place to escape
A place where I could be anyone
Not just what I’ve made my life out to be
I need a place where I connect
To the people all around me
I need to feel the happiness
The closeness of brothers and sisters
Not judging me on what I love
What I can do
What I don’t do
I need to listen to the words that I believe in
I need to hear the voices of others
Surrounding me in unity
Never-ending and forever accepting
My choices and my beliefs
I couldn’t stand it anymore
When I saw them all laughing
As they held hands and sang
Since I knew that I could never be
For what I know
What I love
Is hated
Is killed
I’m here without them
I dream of living life
With the feeling of knowing I’m ok
That what I think isn’t wrong to believe
But as I write these words
This thought becomes a dream
Never to be real
Never to become a truth
Spoken among the heroes of this earth
Just because my God doesn’t fit in
Doesn’t work with everyone else’s opinions
Of the perfect world that we live in
Just because I don’t believe in the right things
Because all I do
Is what they don’t
I’m not alone
I’m just afraid
I believe in the trees, I believe in the wind, I believe that the seeds will grow with water, I believe that love can conquer, and that war is like poison. I believe that life is too short to keep up this ancient hatred against people who are different, who love, who act and who look unlike another. I love my god and I will stand by him till I die, even though most would rather him to disappear rather than be loved. Though I’ll never find the unity I crave, I would rather die then forget the love I feel for my God. Never try to pry me away from the one I believe in, since he’s the only one who can speak the words I cry for, I live for and the ones I’ll die for. This is what I have to live with, standing by my God, even though I know he wouldn’t blame me for walking away, to find another path to find another way. He loves and protects me, what is wrong with that?
