You Say You Love-By Susan Thomas

You say you love everybody,
but don't approve the behavior.
You sneer in disgust,
when a man expresses his love...
for another man
or a woman shares a pasionate kiss
with a another woman.

You claim to love those like them.
Just not that part of them.
I have trouble comprehending...
your idea of love.
That love is somehow conditional.
That if someone believes or feels
in a manner you don't like...
your somehow allowed to hate...
just that one part.

How is that love?
Isn't love UNCONDITIONAL?
Accepting AND embracing...
the WHOLE person.

You try to use the bible.
My lord and savior,
as your excuse for hate.
But the Jesus I know...
LOVED the PROSTITUTE,
the DESTITUTE and SINNERS.
Aren't you just a pharasee?
Caught up in RULES and REGULATIONS,
and FORGETTING the meaning of love.
