False Sense of Security...

from our inner self what emotions do we project... what message do we transcend... and in return what do we get... the attraction, that underlies... unfolding, bitter criticize... the search obtuse,...the mind trap set, the capturing methodical... a surrender, we have settled... ...to all kinds of abuse, vulnerable... desperate, for love to work,... this social sense of security, promised to every boy, every girl... we read it in books, it is found in our music, the luring, of the something missing, the void for some, love, lust, for many designed to destroy... the depth at which we search, is dangerous, for face value, great depths lay the siren of hurt... seek and she will find, to settle is a love blind, each mistake lays in wait...only a matter of time... blame someone else for the path we tread we all know self denial... mixed words read ... for our hearts, are delicate, intricate, driven from deep emotion, one mistake can confuse, from a love to mere slave devotion... ...we have to live with what we do, moreover with what we say... I made a choice that changed my life... ...the right to love gay... there was a time when I felt ashamed, that was due to a few mind setss'... ...I rose above, their bigotry... their senseless prejudice... twenty nine years on my darling partner and I ...most of these others' are separated... and or divorced... It is written in the scriptures, that what we practice is sin, I rather die true to myself, than die a bigot, knowing my inner truth..."this is sin"
