Complex(Gay Poem)

by Michael   Aug 27, 2005


I freeze for a moment,
but I can’t seem to cherish it.

It seems wrong for me to do it,
my brains says stop,
but my heart says go.

My brain stops cold,
my heart pounds wildly,
my defenses are shut down,
while I watch what happens before me.

Our hands clasped,
we are both together,
sharing our love,
but I can’t seem to except that.

Feelings soon come in,
one is fear,
to fear what is happening and why I’m not stopping it,

Another is embarrassment,
being embarrassed of whom I am liking toward_But the most significant is love,
showing my feelings to this person.

For yet I meet this person for a long time,
it seems like the first.

I feel that I’m a fool,
perhaps not understanding how things should be,
yet we are somehow entwined with love,
not caring what people might say.

Once it has ended,
I feel much different than before,
yet confusion now stalks me.

This is something I would have never expected,
for me...a male
kissing for the first time,
with another.

This kiss seems so valuable,
but I think what people will say,
kissing another boy for me,
is just so complex...

    I like the way you express how you feel in this poem. So what if you're gay? Kisses are always complex, and you captured the extra insecurities of it being a same sex kiss really well. Keep your head up, and be proud of who you are.

    Oh, and by the way, it's accept not except

    'Our hands clasped,
    we are both together,
    sharing our love,
    but I can’t seem to EXCEPT that.'

    It's not complex, i am not like you but i can understand how you feel, i hate those people who thinks you guys are like...you know, they just don't understand, you don't have to feel ashame for who you are, instead those who cant accept you for who you are that should be ashame.

    I'm proud of you,
    Keep it up,
    You are one great guy.

    LOVE...PEACE...^_^
