You think of them as foreign, strange
Their relationship is something you should avoid,
Keep your kids away from.
You say you aren’t against it, no, not at all
But you just don’t want your kids thinking its ok
Thinking that love can go beyond the means of being able to reproduce
Thinking that love has no boundaries
Perhaps you don’t want them thinking at all.
You say it doesn’t bother you, you “respect” them
You still see them as people
But when a trans teen is murdered you bat the other eye
You see that couple holding hands and quickly
Turn your child away, distracting them from such a sight
No, no we could not have your son’s masculinity being threatened could we?
And perhaps what all this fear of boundless love boils down to
Is a fear of love itself
Because if you loved yourself first then the love of others,
You would accept without a second thought
