Confused
Love:
four letters,
a million meanings.
Gender:
male,
female,
intersex,
nonbinary.
Race:
Caucasian,
African American,
Asian,
Indian,
Native American,
Mixed Race.
Sexuality:
Heterosexual,
Homosexual,
Bisexual,
Pansexual,
Asexual,
Transsexual.
Labels,
all of them.
Why is it never enough to just be a person?
Names,
derogatory slang,
bashing,
hatred,
all of it so prevalent.
No-one can ever just care for someone,
oh, no there must be ulterior motive.
Sick,
all I see is division,
never unity, always some unspoken animosity.
Enough,
this must end.
The world is exponentially diverse,
let it show.
Love,
four letters,
a million interpretations.
