Love is Love

I'm naturally calm,
But I must confess,
For this there is no balm,
Too many are under duress!

Having love in your heart,
Luckily finding your life-partner,
Feeling that ache when apart,
Whatever - fireman, nurse or gardner,
I will not stand for a strangers ruling,
Love is love, so just shut up!
Just stop all this fooling,
You look like an idiot drooling,
Can you really not see?
You're hurting those dear to me!
Stop this nonsense!
People aren't divided by a wordy fence,
She can love her, and he can love him,
Why does it matter if you are
Jim,
Tim,
Or Kim?

Do not dictate, control or preach,
It only makes you seem a blood-sucking leech.
A noun is just a label,
So grow up, stop being so neonatal!
Call commitment of any two marriage,
And stop with the other names,
They only disparage.
