never been accepted

by Antwan Fields - Aries

they never accepted us
and how is it now 
that you don't seem to understand
it is our secret 
never told anyone 
we were still here 
the way i am looked at as i walk down the street
people glaring at me as i shuffle along 
i haven't been out here ten minutes and youre beginning this already?
mad with lonliness, i go out and have sex
but while its somewhat fulfilling, it just doesn't work 
it works for pleasure but not for the urge
to be WITH someone
the damage has been done 
but not to me 
to my confidence 
i like sex
but what do i do 
when im not accepted 
by them OR by you??
and what do i do 
when death appears at my door
streches out his bony hand and says
come with me??
i will go knowing
that though i tried 
i was not accepeted
never was
before i died
