Why Ask Questions?

[Sally]

Why Ask Questions?

When we ask a question it is supposed to make us smart

But so often the answers stick as a dagger in the heart

Some questions in my opinion are best unasked it seems

For the answers so oft spoken bring the end to dreams

Ask for simple answers to a problem so complex

And they become annoyed and actually perplexed

I only want the answers as to why they cannot accept me

It is they who do not so they must have a reason you see

They may stammer and stutter or just blurt it out

The less they have to say the louder they shout

They will quote the Bible or one study or another

Never accepting my being a sister not a brother

Sometimes I think that it is best just not to ask

Just living in this world is a great enough task

And still I wonder why it is they cannot accept me

I forgive and accept them with all of their bigotry

The world is diverse in nature and mankind is of many parts

We should look not at the surface but view only their hearts

Some are filled with hatred and rage

Others with kindness with wisdom sage

I choose to spend my time with people I feel I can trust

But dealing everyday with those others it seems I must

So I will ask no questions of your sex or where you got your name

Please treat me in kind and with kindness after all we are the same

Love ya,

Sally

If we only knew why people do what they do. Or accept what they think they should accept. Being TG/TS is hard enough on the person that has to deal with being this way, but who needs all the negativity from others, when all you want to do is live your life the best way you know how! I was afraid for these very reasons. Nicely written Sally!!

But I still have questions..... Aylen

Nice poem Sally

<<< hug >>>>

The simplest questions are the most profound

Do not seek answers, but rather try to understand the question
