An Expression of Love Turned To Shame
What I speak of is mostly speculation
About how sex is treated within this nation
My theory begins at the base with education
When children ask a not so polite question
Adults screw their faces in consternation
Why is little Timmy asking of babies and gestation
It is not prudent to teach such filth and demoralization
It is the schools job
But...
Don’t spark Timmy’s imagination!
In the U.S, we preach the birds and the bees jargon
Where in Europe children get an eyeful of 'titillation'
Yet, they’re taught to view nudity from a different perspective
Why is it here we treat sex like innocence annihilation
The second hierarchy then gets pushed away
Boys and girls relying on each other in dismay
Cause the subject has been approached with such shame
By the time they're teens and partakers in the game
The slut shaming comes when a girl loses her worth
By opening her legs, while the guy smiles with mirth
Cause sex is a shameful process here in the states
And men feel worthless if they choose to masturbate
The system is corrupt and keeps us firmly in our place
With men and women blinded by a feuding, gender hate
Perhaps if we explained to a child that sex is needed
Perhaps if we accepted ourselves as human we could exceed this
But
So long as we’re stuck in our old ways of progression
I fear what the future holds for the next generation
Where porn is still illegal and so is prostitution
I cringe at the ignorance shown towards the oldest profession
For our children
I pray this place will change
Find where it has failed in teaching abstinence to perpetuate shame
So one day they may wake to find a world filled with love
Expressed however needed with whomever they covet
