    All you can say
    when I ask you why
    I should continue to live
    my miserable life
    is “God Loves You.”

    So I try to kill myself
    to be with Him.

    You say,
    “God says that it’s a sin
    to kill yourself.
    And so I live
    in misery.

    I finally find happiness-
    she is my whole world.
    And all you can say
    is “God says it’s a sin
    to love another woman.

    So I put her aside
    and return to misery.

    You say,
    “God wants you to be happy.”
    When I ask you how,
    you say,
    “Open yourself to him.”

    So I try-
    drug after drug,
    hoping for a glimpse,
    a single word from God,
    who loves me.

    You say,
    “It’s a sin”

    So I stop.
    I get clean.
    I go through all
    the agonies of Hell
    to be pure for Him again.

    You tell me that
    marriage is the answer,
    because it’s what
    women were meant to do.
    So I try.

    You say,
    “Good for you.”

    We love each other,
    we really do.
    But we also love others.
    An “open relationship”
    most people would call it.

    You say,
    “That’s not what
    God had in mind.”
    You tell me it’s sinful.
    You tell me it’s wrong.

    I look at you and say.
    “Funny, he hasn’t said anything.”

    I tell you-
    “All these years
    I listened to you
    telling me what God says,
    but never once did I hear His voice.”

    I tell you-
    “You told me once
    that God wanted me to be happy.
    But every time I’m happy,
    You tell me it’s a sin”

    I say,
    “Fuck you, and fuck your God”

    You cry-
    you scream-
    you rant and rave-
    and through it all,
    God is silent

    It seems that everything is a sin. But, If we lie to ourselves and wear masks...that's okay.
    Never pretend.
    Find. Create. Sculpt. Be...yourself. :)
