In itself, homosexuality is as limiting as heterosexuality: the ideal should be to be capable of loving a woman or a man; either, a human being, without feeling fear, restraint, or obligation.

Homosexuality
This is the
Age of
Open
Homosexuality.
It's slowly
Losing its
Promiscuity.
It's becoming
As prevalent
As heterosexuality.
I don't know
What the fuss
Is all about…
As long as
The person
Is old enough
To understand
His sexuality...
Doesn't harm
Anybody…
Enjoys safe
Sex -
Who are we
To dictate
That he should
Practise
Only
Heterosexuality?
It's his choice.
Let him experiment.
Let's respect his
Wishes…
Let's accept him
As one of us.
He's a human being
With sexual needs
Just as all of us…
So what
If he's
Gay or bisexual?
It's his life.
Let him live it.

I realize that homosexuality is a serious problem for anyone who is - but then, of course, heterosexuality is a serious problem for anyone who is, too. And being a man is a serious problem and being a woman is, too. Lots of things are problems.

I think heterosexuality and homosexuality are a kind of psychosis, and the truth is somewhere in the middle.

I believe that the fact and the reality of homosexuality and heterosexuality and of opposite and same-gender unions should be taught in our public schools without a value judgement system also being offered.
The treachery
A man is capable of falling
In love with more than one woman
At a time and pursuing them alike.
A woman is capable of getting
Love from more than one man
At a time and encouraging them alike.
Loving is a feeding to men.
Being loved is feeding to women.
Both are capable of treachery.

Who is obligated?
Obligated to take care,
Obligated to spare,
Obligated to be awake,
Obligated to sacrifice,
Obligated to worry,
Obligated to keep smile,
Obligated for life,
Obligated for the name,
Obligated for giving birth,
Obligated for the initial,
Obligated with responsibilities.
What obligation do they have,
When they disown them?
What obligation do they have,
when they abandon them?
What obligation do they have,
when they torture them?
What obligation do they have,
when they walk over them?
What obligation do human have,
when they are alone?

It would have been convenient to be gay. Just because of the grooming, the narcissism, stuff like that. But I have this kind of roaring heterosexuality. Traditional, uncomplicated heterosexuality, an almost cliched Robin Askwith thing.

You ARE A Woman :)
You are a woman,
A strong woman,
A grown woman,
One who WON'T give me what I want just cause I want it woman.
He needs you woman,
A loving woman,
Non-trusting woman,
One who knows the difference between right and wrong woman.
I found a woman,
You're one of em,
So many love em,
You just need to see the places you can be woman.
Hear me woman,
Don't fear me woman,
You're near me woman,
We all face strife, gotta change yo life woman.
See me woman,
No fake or frontin,
Can't be me woman,
For I am a man and you need to be a WOMAN!

That Lovin' You Feelin' Again (feat. Roy Orbison)
When I saw you standing there on the street
I found myself by your side
I started wanting you again
There's just no way to hide from that old
Loving You feeling again
It's really got me reeling again
It only seems to stop to start all over again with you
I remember how you'd always been
That certain look in your eyes
Your not easy to resist
But I just walked on by
With that loving old feeling again
It's really got me reeling again
Only seems to stop to start all over again with you
Loving you feeling with you
We were so close we were too far apart
I gave you my love
I wanted your heart
Without yesterday haunting the way
Maybe we'd still be together
Sharing that loving you feeling again
It's really got me reeling again
Will it ever stop and not start over again
That loving you feeling again
No matter how much I try
This loving you feeling
It's taken such a long time to say goodbye
And getting over you is so hard to do
With this feeling loving you
That loving you feeling again

The greatness of human actions is measured by the inspiration that it brings. Blessed is he who carries within himself a God, an ideal of beauty and obeys it: an ideal of art, ideal of science, ideal of country, ideal virtues of the Gospel! These are the wellsprings of great thoughts and great actions. All reflections illuminate infinity.

Fear
Fear of seeing a police car pull into the drive.
Fear of falling asleep at night.
Fear of not falling asleep.
Fear of the past rising up.
Fear of the present taking flight.
Fear of the telephone that rings in the dead of night.
Fear of electrical storms.
Fear of the cleaning woman who has a spot on her cheek!
Fear of dogs I've been told won't bite.
Fear of anxiety!
Fear of having to identify the body of a dead friend.
Fear of running out of money.
Fear of having too much, though people will not believe this.
Fear of psychological profiles.
Fear of being late and fear of arriving before anyone else.
Fear of my children's handwriting on envelopes.
Fear they'll die before I do, and I'll feel guilty.
Fear of having to live with my mother in her old age, and mine.
Fear of confusion.
Fear this day will end on an unhappy note.
Fear of waking up to find you gone.
Fear of not loving and fear of not loving enough.
Fear that what I love will prove lethal to those I love.
Fear of death.
Fear of living too long.
Fear of death.
I've said that.

Inter-twilight love
I suppose I love you twice
And I realize I hate you once.
Even I'm not sure
That I am really capable to hate you
But you can make me oscillate
Day by day
Between hatred and
The feeling called love
By you only
Until it will be almost impossible
To keep this feeling alive
And I can explain you
It is because
This breakable mechanism called love
Which normally starts from the souls
Didn't start within us from there
But from another secret place
Of our being
And I can explain
You see, our feeling consists
In fact
Completely of passion
And voluptuousness
So, if our love couldn't really start
How can be finished something
It didn't start?
In fact
Our feeling has two faces
Hatred and passion
But, confusively as usual,
We try to call it love-woman
And love-man
In order to facilitate this meeting
We need
A lot of sap
The sap of... sex
The sap of... reason
The sap of...introspection
And the sap of... lie
So you, woman- love-man,
Moreover, inter-twilight love
You have the fault
For not being capable to be born
I 'm not guilty as a woman
And you're not guilty as a man
When
The sap of..... goodness
The sap of...... trustingness
The sap of...... knowledge
And the sap of..... faithfulness
Cannot flow
To the leaves of our souls
More especially our son
Who waits to be born
Is the most guilty.

To be a MAN
You've got to respect all others fight when needed back-off when necessary show compassion when needed help and listen when desired and show feeling's if need to be.
To know his limitation as a human being and respect others a man does not disrespect woman he does not take advantage even if they would allow it.
A man has self-respect, A man doesn't produce children unless he is capable of being there to raise them.
A man realized he will always be attracted to others woman and his matured enough to not act on that once his in a committed relationship.
A man is a real man when he is able to listen to his woman when she say's no and he back-off and doesn't forced her into anything he is most definitely a man when he does NOT HIT a woman.
He must be honest, strong doesn't change his views to suit whom ever he is with.
A man is true to his word if he say he will do something he does it! !

If I Was Your Woman
If I were your woman and u were my man
U'd have no other woman
U'd be weak as lamb.
If u had the strength to walk out my door
My love would overrule my sense,
and I'd call u back for more.
If I was your woman,
If I was your woman,
and u were my man.
yeah
She tears u down darling
says you're nothing at all,
but I'll pick u up darling when she lets you fall(cuz)
your like diamond, but she treats u like glass,
yet u beg her to love you.
From me u won't ask.
If I were your woman,
If I were your woman,
If I was your woman,
Here's what I'd do....
I'd never, never, no, no stop loving you
Yeah (yeah)
Um oooh
Life is so crazy
And love is unkind
Because she was first, darling
will she hang on your mind
You're a part of me but you don't even know it
I'm what you need but I'm too afriad to show it.
If I were your woman
If I were your woman
If I were your woman
Here's what I'd do.....
I'd never, never, no, no stop loving you.
If I were your woman
Here's what I'd do....
I'd never, never, never stop loving you
If i were your woman,
if i were your woman,
if i were your woman,
if i were your woman,
if i were your woman.

Live with harmony
We can live with harmony
Extend the warmth to so many
Make humanity a living example
Time is opportune and very ample
Plant the seeds of brotherhood
Spread the message in neighbourhood
If this much is done as human
We have every right to live as man or woman
Though we have extreme identity
We can maintain separate entity
Function in such a way that it looks in order
Still we confine with limit in border
We can not subdue each other
As role is defined and not to breach one way or another
It will be ideal to say that we are inevitable
Two essential aspects and very much capable
It would be naïve to say that female are meant to be slave
Even thought tied with knot to accompany up to grave
It won’t be considered as heroic step or very brave
If we go on undermining their way or do not pave
If that is considered as important feeling
One must go for it without any more killing
The spirit behind concept and its essence
It is to be taken as of prime importance hence
After all it can take place in this life only
Many might have come and perished recently
It is not important how much you lived
But how you lived honestly and believed?
Why so much stress is laid on peaceful co-existence?
Why it is realized in earnestness with forceful insistence?
The world has witness great upheaval and turmoil?
They want prefer it to be dragged on continuously or always boil
The hostile atmosphere has paid no dividend
It has not seen the peaceful atmosphere and an end
The cold war has come to an end but exists like volcano
We are sitting on it with always fear of inferno
The fall out of two wars have completely paralyzed economy
The out come was disastrous and very much stormy
How many deaths we witnessed as bad consequence?
No one is advocating war in any form or its presence
When it has been tried at all the levels
We have duty to see to it that it excels
Retains its charm without any fear
Else we have to be prepared for pain to bear
Man to man contact facilitate the congenial atmosphere
It eliminates the occurrence of any conflict or fear
Before we miss the opportunity or bus
As sensitive human beings, it is trusted on us

Genderation
Heterosexuality
Is not my fate by chance
In spite of men's obscenity
I still long for romance.
So why is it that we,
Can not seem to see,
The plain normality,
Of homosexuality.
It's simply not a choice.
They deserve a voice.
Its time to be free
From all the simple minded
Homophobic insanity.
There is a generation
Across this modern nation
Who have the consternation
To be just who they are.
They have the moral courage
And will not be discouraged
In face of the scourge
Of false society.
No need for all the drama.
It's love that we are meant to see
And love that is our karma.
So hitch your wagon
to star and think
yourself a mortal?
For in the end
You'll find my friend.
You'll leave your gender
at the door
as you enter
Heavens portal.

I lost that Loving feeling (song parody)
You never Lift the seat any more
When you have to pee
And when we’re making love
You always finish before me
it’s getting hard not to notice, Hubby
That weekly you get more and more chubby
I've lost that loving feeling
while staring up at the ceiling
I've lost that loving feeling
Now it's gone, gone, gone
Whoa-oh
Now there's no tenderness
In your eyes when you reach for me
You seem more interested
In our wall mount LCD
I’m depressed and inside I’m dying
Cause Baby can’t look beautiful crying
I've lost that loving feeling
while staring up at the ceiling
I’ve lost that loving feeling
Dead and gone gone gone
And I can't go on
No-oh-oh
Don’t expect me to get down on my knees for you
You’d have to pay me more than you expected to!
We’ve had it love, but now I’m gonna have my say
My day in court, the Judge will make you pay.
Bring back that loving feeling
with someone far more appealing
Bring back that loving feeling
Now it’s gone...gone...gone...
And I can't go on...
No-oh-oh...

That's Real
What's profound in a relationship
Is pure unadulterated honesty
You love the other person so much
That it hurts.
Or are you so unrelated to who you really are?
That you refuse to be true to the real situation?
But if so that's no consolation
Concerning one's obligation.
Your obligation is to self
Not anyone else.
As humans we were created
(PERFECT) ...what happen?
A woman became a raw toy
For that raw boy,
And meat became cheapen.
As people we see what was saw...
I mean seen,
So the perfect relationship becomes a dream.
You work at that dream...
Like there is no tommorrow...
Picking up and holding on to sorrow.
Crying on the inside with every step
Hoping to get some pep.
Loving who you are...
Makes a big, big sound
When you keep both feet on the ground.
Now that's profound.
