Life is a Journey:
From childish innocence,
Shattered by fear,
Across a desolate desert
Of emptiness and pain.
Through searching years
Of study and inquiry,
To an illusive oasis
Of sexual love.
Only to be felled
By fear of disease
And a virulent prejudice
That bedevils and damns.
In my distress
And He answered
In time
Over years of slow progress.
Until at last
I found love in my heart.
The treasure was hidden
Within my own soul.
And I found my way Home
Never to return.
