I am straight just as you say Homosexuality? Ha, not today I'm attracted to men, I swear I am I'll prove it to you if you give me a chance Men are soft and warm and squishy My heart beats fast when I think of kissing Men, with sparkling eyes and curvy flesh I don't think about what I'm going to say next And when her hand does drift near mine My whole world seems to stop in time She's the honey and butter, I'm the crumbs and the plate She's a hydrogen bomb and my mouth is agape A tsunami and a twister, I'm debris left behind She's a cyclone of inferno and I'll look till I'm blind In her right she's a queen, I'm a peasant that knelt A sphere of velvet and steel while I'm the asteroid belt If she's the artist and the paint, I'm the brush and the canvas She's the one that I want, but I couldn't have planned this I'm the body and blood, she's the gun and bullets And I'm falling too far into somewhere I shouldn't I'll admit I'm a coward because in public I'm straight If I fall out of the closet, I don't know what will await Will I receive open arms or will it take a turn for the worse Another story with the ending " young corpse in a hearse " But I can't help but wonder, if she's the stars I'm the sky Then she must be the fruit and I must be the fly Our talks leave me warm like the smile on her lips I feel most at home with my hands on her hips If she's a rose among weeds, then I must be the thorns She's a bull caged in limbo, I'm her dust covered horns I think I'm trapped in my ink, but I live in this fear In fate's hands I will shatter and never see her draw near Lacerated fists I will raise, on concrete feet I will stay Like the sun, I will rise and reign in the new day They can try to devour me with their hatred laced bullets But you can't move a mountain whether you push it or pull it If she's the shield and the armor, I'm the scream and the sword She's an implosion of the cosmos, I'm the written record

I am straight just as you say Homosexuality?

First of all, let me note that this, unfortunately enough, isn't my own work. It's a good friend's of mine who is just amazing. With her permission of course, I decided to put it out there. She is far more experienced than I, but has never shared her work, so I think this is the start of something beautiful, perhaps her own account. Baby steps for now though.
