He'll Break My Heart

This is a poem I wrote awhile ago, just expressing some frustration over a stupid crush... enjoy!

He'll break my heart
I know he will
But there's nothing I can do
I pray to God I'll stop feeling this way
It's tearing me apart

I've known it for far too long
This can never be
The love I have for him
Will never be requitted
He will never love me

If not for Christ
My heart would be in two
So I kneel
And offer my pain for you

He can never know
How much I've suffered
For his sake—So when I am dead and gone
Please send this in kind
That my love for him was always pure
But his heart was ever blind

To lay the smackdown or not to...

Initially, I was going to write this absolutely amazing smackdown regarding the "homosexuality" comment on a previous post.  But I decided that maybe that is not the best course of action. People who suffer homosexual tendencies have heard all the arguments, and I'm sure they're sick of hearing the same things over and over again.  So, I decided to do something different....something radical.  And hopefully this will dispel the thought of me being bigotted and hatfeul, and...I hope... open the hearts of those who suffer homosexual tendencies and those who believe homosexuality is a good thing...

Dear Brother/Sister in Christ,
       You are loved. I hope you know that. I love you, but most of all, Christ loves you. Even if you don't believe in God, the Truth still remains—He loves you. Keep that in mind as you read the rest of this letter.
   What you are feeling, you know deep down in your heart is not true. It is a lie. Do not allow yourself to be tempted... This is a Cross that you must bear—allow God to carry it for you. You do not have to give in; you do not have to "come out" despite what the world tells you.
   You know what a true family looks like—one man, one woman: husband and wife. You know this, because it is written on your heart. You know this, because that is how you came into being—the love of a Man and a Woman is Creative. It brings life! Love, true love, naturally spawns a new life! Any love without this is empty, lifeless, nothing...superficial.
   There is a solution, although you may not like it. Turn to Him! Let Him take this disordered attraction from you! Turn to those who can help you and lead you towards a holy and chaste life.
   I am praying for you everyday! May God bless you abundantly, and let His face shine upon you. I beg you...come home! The Truth will set you free!
      Your Sister in Christ,
         Meryl
