The poem below, is by Josh.
>I dont need someone to look out for me. >I can look out for myself. >I dont need a "protector." >I can protect myself along with others. >I dont need someone looking over my shoulder, telling me what I do is wrong. >I am in control of every situation. >If you want to do something. >Ill tell you what you can do. >You can comfort me when I need to cry. >You can calm me down when I am angry. >You can listen to me talk when I need to vent. >You can even give me advice if I ask for it. >Theres a million things you can do. >Theres a million things I need. >But the one thing I dont need is someone telling me what to do. > >You tell me that drinking is a sin. >You tell me that doing drugs is a sin. >You tell me that lust is a sin. >You tell me that sex is a sin. >You tell me that being gay is a sin. >But you tell me I should live a full life and be happy. >What if drinking with my friends makes me happy? >What if doing drugs makes me happy? >What if lusting after someone makes me happy? >What if having sex makes me happy? >What if loving someone of the same sex makes me happy? >What if these things fulfill me? >Does that mean I shouldnt do these things? >Does it mean I should stop having fun? >Does it mean I should stop doing things that make me happy? >If it doesent >Im sorry I cant do that. >Because then I wouldnt be true to myself. >And that is the only sin I fear. > >If you tell me not to drink. >I wont listen. >If you tell me not to do drugs. >I wont listen. >If you tell me not to smoke. >I wont listen. >If you tell me not to have sex. >I wont listen. >I listen to myself. >I do what I believe is right for me. >I know what Im doing. >Im more experience then you think. >Ive been through more then you can imagine. >I have a reason for everything I do. >I know why I do them. >You dont. >So dont try and tell me what to do saying its for my own good. >I wont listen. > >I finally told you. >Now you know. >How will you react? >A smile takes over your face. >You ask me to be with you. >I say yes. >We are both happy, in love. >And everyone knows it. >We show it well. >I just know we have a connection that will bond us forever. > >Thee I awake. >I havent really told you. >But If I had I know how youd react. >Youd do the same as you did in my dream. >I know for a fact you would. >So whats keeping me from telling you? >I dont know. >Maybe because I love you so much I dont want to hurt you. >Maybe Im just scared. >Maybe Ill never know why. > > >You say you know who I am. >But I dont even know who I am. >I havent figured it out yet. >Im trying. >Im not a good guy. >Im not a bad guy. >Im somewhere in the middle. >And Im true to myself. >Thats all I know. >But you say you know who I am. >Since you know me so well, >Can you help me figure it out? >Id really like to know. > >What I feel is more then lust. >What I feel is more then love. >What I feel cant be described. >I dont know any words that can show my emotions. >How can I show you how deep my love is? >I cant. >Its not the right time. >When is the right time? >Maybe never. >Ive turned you down before. >More then once. >I didnt know that what I had felt was more then friendship. >I didnt know that what I felt was greater then love. >Should I tell you what I feel? >I dont think I should. >But you’ve told me how you feel. >And I feel the same. >Will I ever tell you? >Who knows.probably not. >Fear keeps me from telling you. >Does that mean Im weak? >Maybe. >But I still wont tell. >If only you knew how much I love you. >But I try not to show it. >So you wont ever know. >We will always remain the best of friends. > >How can I show you my love? >I don't know how. >I have never tried >I have never wanted to before. >Can i show with the way I react? >Can you see it in the way my face lights up when you walk in the room? >Can you see it in the way my frown turns into a smile when you look at me? >CAn you see it in the way my eyes light up when we touch? >Can you see it in the way you bring me up when i am down? >Can you hear it in my voice when we talk on the phone? >I hope you can >Because those are the only ways i know how to show my love. >For i have never wanted to show my love to someone.... > >until now > > >You are my best friend >You're like a sister to me. >I know how you feel. >I know what you want. >I know you love me as more. >I know how I feel. >I know what I want. >I know I love you as more. >I know my heart >And I know it has never loved liked this. >I know it never will again. >But because of my love for you >I must push you away. >I want to be true to my heart, >but I cannot >Because I don't want to hurt you. >It's hurting me inside >But I cannot show you >I don't want you to know >So I must push you away. >I love you as a friend >I love you as a sister. >I love you as more.... >like a lover. >I love you. >But we can only be friends... >nothing more. > >I may take what you give me for granted. >And tell you that i don't care. >And not show you the love that you show me. >But the truth must be told. >I am afraid of what I don't know >I am afraid of what no one has ever felt for me. >I am afraid of what I feel for you. >I am afraid of what I don't think can last >For perfect things cannot last forever. >Or can they? >I don't know. >Do you? >I am afraid of me being hurt. >I am afraid I will push you away because I love you so much. >I am afraid of a love I have never known. >You are my love. >I only wish i could show you..... > >Before you leave without knowing how much I love you. |
