you say it's against god?
well guess what, we're not gods -
we're people, and people love
and that man from galilee didn't teach you only one way

(love everyone, he said
so where exactly is your basis?)

and i'm not saved by your empty words
or by the ritual loop inside your stained glass windows -
i'm saved by feeling the rain
and loving the little things.
i'm saved by the things i create and the beauty i see,
and the mind-boggling vastness of it all -
not
by you.

and if your ******* sacrament is becoming obsolete, well then,
whose fault is that?
the people who are making it a privilege
instead of a right,
a reward for loving one way and not the other
because for god's sake (the one you don't know
as well as you think)
we're all people
and people
love.

your god made you that way,
and you do him no justice.

you say, we don't hate them
("them?")
and no, i suppose you don't -
you do worse.
you patronize,
you pity,
and you pray for,

and it makes me sick.

i can marry the boy i love but
my best friend, he can't do the same?
deplorable, my friends,
and that man from galilee would hang his head.
