Questions I Never Asked

If you say you love me
Shouldn’t you let me be?
How do you love me this way
When it’s not for you I pray?

What is obsession to a lover?
Is it food or is it hunger?
If I break this heart you give
Would you mend it when you forgive?

What if God were an angry teacher?
What if lust was love to seduce a preacher?
What if you were not aware
That there’s nothing to wait for here?

Then a man can love a man
For a woman can a woman because she can
One is sinner, the other Saint
Everything looks cleaner with a new paint.
