WHEN I SAY
When I say I love you,
and offer to share my life,
I'd think you could see its value
when compared to the daily strife.
You see it's not always easy,
to love one born just like me,
for placed upon our shoulders
are the glares of society.
I was taught the difference,
to recognize the sin,
that loving someone like me,
and the hell it would put me in.
So when I say I love you,
I'm risking my afterlife,
to share a place with you here and now,
and by making you my wife.
I can not help who I love,
or what sex that they may be,
but I'm going to love with all me heart,
for all eternity.
