THE TRUTH(in honor of pride month)
THE TRUTH
“I can’t change
Even if I tried
Even if I wanted to
I can’t change”
Equality
It does not exist in this city
Because right here is where marriage
Is simply a right for everyone
For ALL individuals
Oh wait
Did I say all?
I take that back
I meant to say all straight people
All straight feminine girls with long luscious hair that cheat on their husbands
And all straight masculine men with six packs that beat their wives
Yes, they deserve the right to get married
Of course only straight people are deserving of marriage
It is the way God intended and
Homosexuality is a sin
A sin that gays will SURELY burn in Hell for
The thought of it is enough to make the skin crawl
Marriage is between a man and a woman
Why should gays be allowed to enter into such a sacred union?
Sacred union?
Oh right, the one that has a 41% divorce rate
And yet they STILL complain that gay marriage will “ruin” the sanctity of straight marriage
I think Kim Kardashian and Katy Perry can take the fault on that one, don’t you?
MEDIA! That’s who’s to blame
It makes gay marriage seem lame
Everyone looked at our President like he had two heads because he was for it
It takes a brave soul to come out when they are a celebrity because word would spread to their fans
Lack of sells
They won’t prevail
One hit wonders that’ll a soon become a fail
Frank Ocean and Ellen DeGeneres
GUILTY?
You see, gays are guilty of only one thing:
Forcing the Bible on you? No
Screaming random crude slurs at someone in the street? No
Beating a woman to a bloody pulp because she happens to look like a guy? No
Attacking someone in the alley and raping them because they’re transgendered?
Thrusting a gun upon the side of a 14 year old boy’s face and telling him he deserves to die because of who and what he is?
Not even close…
Bullied. Beaten. Threatened.
Tears running down his cheeks
See, I was too little to realize that my cousin was a victim of inequality
All because his partner was another man?
He wasn’t a threat.
He wasn’t a bully.
He was just GAY.
Gay people are simply: gay
In every sense of the word
Not gay as in lame
And not gay as in retarded
But gay as in happy
Gay as in queer
Gay as in a man loving a man
And a woman loving a woman
I don’t understand what is WRONG with this picture:
A young lesbian couple, walking down the street, hand in hand
Gazing in each other’s eyes and sharing a bond unlike no other
Simply wanting to be loved and accepted
Hate is the furthest thing from their minds and yet
It is all they have ever known
Because this world is too ignorant
Too ignorant to accept those that differ from them
Too ignorant to continue on loving their sons and daughters, brothers and sisters
And too ignorant to the point where a man cannot even say goodbye to his husband on his deathbed
Because he is NOT considered a “real” family member
So he is faced with the agonizing pain of being stuck in the waiting room
Not being able to hold his dying husband’s hand
And not knowing when his partner of 25 years will no longer be with him
Equality
Does not exist in this city
