Death Is Death Regardless Of The Cause!

Death Is Death Regardless Of The Cause:

Since HIV was discovered,
Thousands have died from immunity
breakdown, or the body's inability,
To fight back any virus that would do it harm.

HIV was able to wreck men, women,
children, grandmothers, and grand fathers,
No one was spared from this disease
as far as I know,

After coming into contact with this devil.
The fear, hate, consternation,
social stigma, and castration,
This virus brought upon us all,
will always bother those who are infected with HIV,
for as long as this virus is still around.

Some people are so afraid,
they are afraid to have sex of any kind.
Marriages are breaking up,
because one partner is too scared even to kiss,
much less have sexual intercourse.

Anytime you meet someone socially,
and try to get too close
or try to have some of that which we all love!

The fear that he or she will refuse you,
because he or she is afraid of HIV & AIDS.

Some even confuse the two categories,
and see both as one thing!
Some don't care which is which, as long as it is HIV associated.
Negative and positive status means little or nothing to either one,
because it takes only one instance of sexual activity to change one's status.

And not having sex of any kind,
is contradictory to human nature and human procreation.
Sex for pleasure or sex for love,
or sex for children,
is something that every individual have to consider
whenever he or she gets sexually intimate for most of us humans now.

And I wonder how long can we operate under this umbrella of fear,
before we eventually decide to throw all caution to the wind!
