Am I going to feel like
this forever?
Will my loneliness ever
subside?
He has been taken from be
by ignorant laws
Strangers have ripped him
from our home
Will they ever understand
what they are doing to us?
Will they ever have their
rights trampled on like this?
I don't care who knows
anymore
He is the man I love, the
man I want to spend the rest of my life with
I will no longer sit idly
by and let their hate and ignorance rule our lives
I will become a force to be
reckoned with
I will channel this
loneliness, use it to impact our lives for the better
Help those ignorant people
understand that love must win, rights must prevail
If we lose this fight, they
will be next
If one population can be
oppressed without the others raising up against it
Then one by one, the
dominoes will fall, one population at a time
If they only understood,
it's not a question of if; it's a question of when
Didn't civil rights teach
us anything?
Before the civil rights movement,
another population was denied all of these rights
They too suffered under the
oppression of the bigoted majority
They were forced to live as
second-class citizens
Keep going back in time,
and the same pattern repeats itself
The majority targets a
small population and legally oppresses them
No other groups come to
their defense
Not until enough of them
have also suffered, but by then it's too late
Wake up people; stop the
bigotry, hate and ignorance before it knocks on your door
We are depending on you; we
need you to join this fight
Alone we may win this
battle, together we cannot lose
We must fight for
EVERYONE'S rights, not just our own
I want him to be able to
come home
I want to make a life with
him
Together we are so much
more than the sum of two people
Please, join us against the oppression and help
me bring him home
