It tortures his being As he sits on his knees to pray Crosses on his pillows But no warm body in his bed He has remained without a So he must love his neighbor His only sin Lies just below the navel He holds his bible as dear as his own blood But the sun has grown dim for him these days And faith diluted with lewdness Again he feels the longing He tries to silence But it calls out from between his hips He wants so much not to give in Not to hear his own calling But again he gives in And he feels what peace can be To have it is so bitter

gequetscht, The supreme "commamdment" to life in all it's forms is "SURVIVE" that is first and foremost what all species are equiped to do. The fact that this conflicts with your religion cannot be resolved without a change in one or the other,
This is not a lifelong problem. When you are
young and virile as you are supposed to be the rules of society and racial survival are difficult to balance but as you get older it gets easier.
This is the way life was created to be don't worry about it.. Just keep your balance. Try not to fall off.
Quite a good write. |
