THAT'S WHY

(Lee and Amy met online.)

Sometimes you wish
You didn't love me
But you do
It complicates your life
But you do
It brings strife
But you do


Don't you realize
The anguish you put me through
When you let your family treat you bad
Their unbending attitude makes me sad
Their underminding coarse verbage makes me mad
Because they refuse to understand
You are my life
That's why I wear your band

Time and time again
You go to them with a hopeful heart
Then return to me with it torn apart
In my arms you cry
Swearing you will not again try
Because they refuse to understand
I am your life
That's why you wear my band.

NOTE: A web friend sent me her wedding pic. When she said I could post it, I asked is there a poem of mine that she would like to go with it. And this is the one she picked.

NOTICE BOARD

Hi SPT readers. I haven't posted anything new in several months. I don't want to post about political issues so until I'm inspired with something new or finish a story ....

Feel free to post comments about something you have read at SPT because I do like hearing from my readers even if it is just a hello. I don't put up my email address because I already get mail from people trying to sell me Viagra which goes straight to the Junk box. :) I do receive notification when someone has made a comment at SPT and I will respond as soon as I can. Thank you for visiting. -S

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)
