My first attempt at writing after several years... - February 22nd 2011, 04:04 PM

Little girl growing up
In a world of intolerance
Only knows in her heart
That what she feels makes sense


Love is love
That’s all that should matter
But it’s more complicated than that
When even those close laugh at her


“It’s just silly emotions
Thoughts that should be left alone
Nothing that an intelligent young lady
Should ever describe as her own”


In such a lonely world
It’s best to do as she’s told
Force a smile, fake a feeling
When you only want someone to hold


Mommy told her love would come
A man would sweep her off her feet
Marry her, love her,
Give her everything she would need


Little girls ask questions
And trust their mother’s reply
She wanted to know how come
Mommy only described her life with a guy


“Why, Mommy?

Instead of two men?
How come you don’t talk about families
That two Mommies live in?”


“Honey, I know you’re just little,
And that questions come along
But baby girl, I’m afraid
you’ve got it all wrong”


The little girl becomes a woman
Life goes on
But there’s still the thought in her mind
Wondering why it’s so wrong


If I only love others
And never cause harm
Why do they think I’m disgusting
When I’m in a woman’s arms?


Some questions are never answered clearly
When Mommy replies
Why is it wrong for me to feel love
When I look into her gorgeous eyes?


She’s beautiful and kind
Has never hurt me or caused pain
So how is this part of who I am
Somehow an ugly stain?


I know my Mommy meant well
She’s only looking out for me
But these emotions aren’t silly
This is who I’m meant to be


It can’t be so wrong
When it feels completely right
As she pulls me in close
And holds me so tight


I can accept who I am
I love who I’ve grown to be
But Mommy, how about you?

Do you still love me?

This is really good. I often wonder why people think it is so bad for me to be attracted to another girl. I mean I didn't choose to be this way, I was born like this and I am not ashamed of it, so why are other people?
