You don't have to knock

Door to my heart was locked 
You knocked hard that day
When I answered I was afraid 
My little hairs stood up straight 
Goose bumps from thin air 
Heart racing like NASCAR 
Body warning me of something 
Beware the red hair 

Life has taught me not to listen 
Different source. Different story 
Take another crazy chance 
You sure look like trouble 
Like my problem ex's I should say 
But you're not them
You don't think or act like them
Sex is not your weapon or reward 

But rather an expression of love 
Something you like thinking of
My body was warning me
Beware the red hair 
Now the red has turned gray 
We love more intensely every day 
You changed me dramatically 
The goose bumps were wrong

Nowadays 
Door to my heart I leave unlocked 
Since we tied the knot 
Connected by ropes of love 
You don't have to knock.

We won't be a secret anymore

Our gay love is a secret Paradoxically There are no secrets between us Not supposed to be The more fiercely hidden The more outrageous are The chances we take We've taken some big ones As if we want to get caught We do. Don't we? The bigger the secret The more it seeks exposure At first it hides in the closet Then it hikes the forest Where no one can see us Then it strolls in the park Then lunch at a busy restaurant Holding hands in public Who we are is a secret But our gay love is obvious We may be on the down low I think everybody knows Our love is for the ages There are no secrets between us And one day We won't be a secret  You won't feel shame or guilt After taking all those chances Instead pride & hope will fill your heart We have no secrets between us And some day  We won't be a secret anymore. Theme Song for this Poem "Ready to Take a Chance again" Barry Manilow Foul Play 1978

Looking For Someone

Image
I'm looking for someone somewhere gay Not just anybody  I'm looking for you Someone who Will tell me the dreaded truth Even when it Hurts like an abscessed tooth  While it makes me cry Break it down slow & easy  Decorum mixed with sleazy  Slang hanging with S.A.T. words Wow! Kapow! You know how  It's what I'm looking for  Dynamited to the core Washed up on the rocky shore  Dry me off. Give me sunburn  Someone whose head will turn When I toss a lustful look I throw a playful kiss You catch it with your lips Cruising for someone somewhere gay I'm not just looking  I'm looking for you. ************* Theme Song for this Poem  Somebody Just Like You -- Teena Marie
