Love is for the Brave

I picture myself in a realm of love and grace,

With my beloved- away from this society’s ties,

I picture waking each morning in your warm embrace,

Share a deep kiss whilst staring into your eyes.

Our bond is an unspoken taboo for this world,

What’s nectar for us in their eyes is blood,

We want love nonetheless, but hate is hurled

The serenity of our love disrupted by this society’s thud!

What has my identity to do with love?

When all that matters is- he loves me, I love him.

What has my gender to do with love?

When all that matters is- she loves me, I love her.

Love is for the brave, not the coward at heart,

They might whisper, shout or even try to tear us apart

Love is for the brave, it’s neither profane nor scared,

And ours is fueling the fiery pyre of hatred

Live with love- Live with pride!

Kiss me now, let’s rise and glide.

They’ll hurl their dogma, their hate, their lies,

From our burnt ashes, we’ll yet arise,

Let us break bonds from our chains,

Kick off the hate and rinse off our stains,

“Love is for the brave”

“Love is for the brave”
