Our Hearts Are Our Own
Injustice, idealized by the ideals of the prejudiced and intolerant
Immoral ,decided by the morally correct
Law, created by those who hold hatred to any soul
Whose choices have strayed from the path deemed right
Shameful, that is what these ideas are.
Who are we? Who are the lawmakers?
Who are we to define love?
Humans are not puppets, to be strung up and played by skilled hands
We all have the power of choice
We all have the right to choose who to love
Change; it is as inevitable as the sunrise
Indomitable as the waves crashing on the shore
Change, it is coming, coming like a stampede of bulls
A stampede no man dares to stop
For this stampede of raw power and endurance is love
Love is persistent
Love is compassionate
Love does not judge, does not hold bigotry
Love is tolerance; respect
No amount of paper can prevent whispering "I love you."
No one can force us not to love another
No one can make us change our hearts
For they are our own, and no one can claim them
And we alone hold the right to choose
Who has the priviledge of stealing our hearts.
