Powerless


Love is a strong power.

Love can happen with anything

or anyone.

What happens when your strongest

power is stripped away.

And your left with nothing.

All you have left are hateful words

Crude looks

A tarnished heart.

If the one person you've ever loved 

just happens to be the same

sex.

What if Society tore you two apart.

If your bond was destroyed by

Expectations 

Reasoning

Hate.

What could you do then

but be....

POWERLESS
