Lesbians Strife Poem by Renee' Stretch

Lesbian’s Strife
By Renee’
19/02/2010

When you are born they take over your life
Forcing their discipline and causing you strife
Till the pain is so unbearable
You don’t give a Damn and think of another variable
Setting their standards
And forcing them on you
But inside you feel different
You can’t leave, because you have no rent

They hate you if you are too clever
Forcing you to do their school
Are you just a stupid fool?
Their rules make you so damn crazy
Sometimes you wish you had a tool
Then you too can be fat and lazy

For twenty odd years they have messed with your mind
Expecting you to leave your feelings behind
Feeding you religion, hate and TV
Mindless and classless they want you to be
But inside you feel different
You can’t leave, because you have no rent

There is a husband they have chosen for you
You become so afraid, to confess or shed a tear
Because they have filled you with their damn fear
You say stop no more
Now they lock the door
What have we done to deserve this, is their cry
Filling you with their stupid lies

You are what!
As the slap reins across your face
The pain removes your breath, leaving without a trace
To the ground you fall
They stand over you so tall
In fear all you can do is crawl

Night falls
All is silent
You listen at the door
To see if you can hear his snore
You must leave this place
As your heart begins to race

Alone in the street you will be
No place to stay
No rent to pay
But you are free
As a Lesbian, this has to be
But yes, you are free
No place to stay
No rent to pay
You are a Lesbian and you are free
