Revelatory speaking
listening to breathing
trying to slow
down to a "no."
Alluring consequences
blurring rationale
left with unchoosable choices
that society will allow.

An All or Nothing mindset
keeps us blind to a cage
that filters every word
we hold as God's page.
Contradictions clearly concealed
between the Old and the New
How can there be love
when there's a hell just for you?
041505~2.15p
Questioning morality & society's assumptions of these based on religious teachings.
The first half dealing with trying to control my desires & love for someone when we were both in our own relationships.

The second half questioning religion's narrow-minded imposing laws, assuming everyone is the same.

Your religion is for YOU. Leave me out of it.
