Blind Love
i look at them
and theyre no different than me
i look at them
and see my friends staring back
society shuns
but i wont let that be me
you hate them you say
and i ask why?
because they have something
something you dont understand
but you dont need to understand
you must feel
feel in the deepest
most sacred part of your soul
remember what its like to love
how it feels
and think
in this moment
what injustice this is
to take away genuine love
because not too long ago
i wouldnt have been able to love
whoever and whomever
because society said so
because thats what society thought
but thats doesnt make it right
and soon youll see my side
until then
this is my start
this is my stand
ill be your voice
against the close-minded
because i want to stand on the right side
the right side of history
to manifest equality
because someone did it for me
ill stand proud in this fight
because love is love
and who are you to take that away?
