Lord, is it too much to ask for thy mercy?
Do you turn from me even as I love someone
You say it's not okay to love?
(when apparently love is God-given
and God so loved the world
that he gave His only son
to die for us)
How is it fair that she would love
any, over me
simply because I am not made in your
other image?
Did Adam and Eve have a chapel, an
ordained minister, and the proper vows?
They say what I'm feeling is sinful, but
all I can hear is Your voice, telling me now,
"Go on, kiss her. Be true to yourself. I love you."
It hurts so much- why must I be trapped
in a circle of never-ending
"I can't"s and "I shouldn't"s and
"there's something wrong with me"s
when I am almost certain You're on my side-
All-knowing and ever-living God, tell me, please:
Why are some certain kinds of love so wrong when
all I can feel is right?
