Gravedad


Let us coexist and intertwine

I want to fall into you,

I want to be you.

I am you.

I am just like you,

you are just like me.

We are not twins,

but brothers.

You are part of me

as I am of you.

We are joined by the delicate thread

we call society.

Yet....

We are not equal.

I am considered an affront to society.

You shun me.

You think...

My thoughts belong to you.

My desires belong to you.

We are brothers through the grace of God.

We were meant to be the same.

Not replicas.. not twins.

Do not patronize me so.

I am not a work of science.

I am a work of God.

...scientific equations and rations are of no use.

The rules of gravity do not explain why

a man falls for a man, a woman for a woman.

Let me fall into you.

Let me be part of you.

Let me be your brother.

Similar, but not a replica.
