NO MAN'S LAND .b1

in my quiet contemplation
i wonder if we need mediation
you set me adrift alone
and i've been trying to find
no man's land

i followed the brightest star
survived tossing waves that carried me far
and i did find dry sand
but it wasn't no man's land
i stayed a while and enjoyed the greenery

and the lushous scenery
but mostly, i watched & learned
sometimes i played until i burned
but restless, i couldn't stay for long
it was time to move on
i must keep searching for no man's land

once or twice, i thought i had finally reached
my journey's end
when i heard joyful singing and laughter
but as i went around the bend
i saw that again
i had taken the wrong turn
but no it was not meant to be
so i continued searching for my destiny

now i'm wondering does it really exist
the place where i can be free -- be me
a place where no one cares
where no one stares
when two women share love
skin to skin
that's where my journey will end
when i find her
the woman who has the other half of my heart
until then i'll search on till i find
no man's land

The Agenda-Civil Rights

Support for the LGBT Community: While we have come a long way since the Stonewall riots in 1969, we still have a lot of work to do. Too often, the issue of LGBT rights is exploited by those seeking to divide us. But at its core, this issue is about who we are as Americans. It's about whether this nation is going to live up to its founding promise of equality by treating all its citizens with dignity and respect. Federal law should not discriminate in any way against gay and lesbian couples. ... young & old, rich & poor, democrat & republican, black white hispanic asian native american gay straight disable and not disable ... we are and always will be the United States of America. --Barack Obama, (More)
