Inexorable Words

And some said we 

Were Godless

Creatures

Seeking

Some

Unfortunate

Fortune

Along

The gates

Of some forbidden love

That we

Emptied

Ourselves

Purposeful persecution

For attention

Spans

Of years of youth

We chose

To choose

This riotous rebellion

Hellions

Seeking

Some solemn Sodom

Paranoia

Creeping all along

Their skin

We were in

Something delicate

Despite

Our inundation with

Their thoughts of sin

I loved

Free and honest

Open

And true

Even in the dark

After hours

Of telling

Myself

That it wasn't worth it

I knew

That I couldn't

Keep

These lies

They never did

Hold water

Weighing heavy

Ready

For me to shrug

Them off

To be brave

Not to simply

Save face

To allow myself

To love you

Was to allow

Love to myself

And you felt

Like some

Enchantment…no

No not a spell

Something else

Like my own skin

Familiar

Inexorable decisions

Not fit

For division

Or devising

Of limits

A part of me

Deep

Inside my cells

Tells

My mind

My heart

My scars

That they can heal

Because this

This love is real

Not a faze

Or fiction of

Some imaginative ways

This was me

And you

And we don’t owe

Explanations

Or need to be placed in

Boxes

Boasting

Of genetic abnormalities

We were these

Perfect creatures

Reaching deeper

For our strength

Among

The ways of men

Who misunderstand

The truth

Pure and patient

Waiting

For a new

And better day

To rid us

Of the hate

That fostered shame

That made them say

That we

Were anything

Less

Than Gods intent

Invent

Another way

To throw your stones

Let them

Fall from those

Unfailing hands

That impressed upon you

The need to end

The things you yourself

Could not embrace

Your face

Now just an image

In my mind

Hoping you will find

Freedom

Somewhere beyond

This place we have known

A place of earth

And sky

Since you have been

Welcomed
