they say that God loves everyone
so what makes us the exception
they say that God forgives all
so why are we the unforgivable
They say that God made everyone perfect
so why are we evil mistakes
we just want be who we are
we want to be free from this hate
why cant you see that we are alike
we just want to find love
find happiness
find acceptence
they say that those who are not like them are going to hell
that there so-called loving and forgiving God will send us to burn in a pit of flames
but if the man they call God is so loving and forgiving and accepting to his people
why would he send us to a place like that
wouldn't he try to save us from this closet that you have locked us in
starving us of our true freedom
you scream and yell such hateful words while you hide behind some hateful signs
you yell about how God Hates Fags
How about I educate you in a history and vocabulary lesson
a Fagot is a bundle if sticks used to burn gays at the stake
Innocent people had become fire wood
they became fuel
but how is it that Moses saw wood on fire
and he saw God in it
how can things that look so similar be so easily missed
just looked over for thousands and thousands of years
Do you think that the people that say they swear
and live by the bible
will look back over the words of God with this in mind
Another example is our Lord Jesus Christ
he had two dads and turned out just fine
the bible says
"Love Thy Neighbor as you love Thy Self." Mark 12:31
but how can you say that you love thy neighbor
if you just keep spreading and teaching this hate
to the next generation

- Comment from author about the poem: So this poem means a lot to me. I am christian AND a part of the LGBTQP+ community. This is for all the people who say that the way we live is a sin. I want those who feel this way to read this poem with an open mind and heart. I would like them to see how contradicting they are to people who are not straight. Also to those who are in the closet or out or where ever you are, keep loving. They can't take this away from you, don't fight with hate like they do, fight with love. Love is so much stronger than hate. Just remember that "WE ARE HERE! WE ARE QUEER! SO GET USE TO IT!" Love you all. Happy Pride Month

Klokat, you wrote a beautiful and very thought provoking poem. I differentiate between the Christian belief and the Church as an organisation made and run by man. God cannot be wrong and does love everybody. Unfortunately churches as man-made organisations have been distorting and changing the basic belief. Many times to suit their own purposes. Just look at the history of the Catholic church. This is unfortunate and sad.
In an ideal world everybody would think like you. Let's just hope we will eventually get there!
Let us hope. Thank You for the great comment
I don't know if I'm really gay, ive been by myself so long. ive had gay relationships a long time ago. most of them are now dead. but not in my heart. I miss them so. you are loved
Good write. It is a pity that this world cannot accept all people no matter what gender, race, creed, sexual orientation or disability (or any other I have missed). Life for all of us can be wonderful.
