Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable seeing two men holding guns than hands?

So what if you loved me...oh well.
So what if you trusted me...oh well.
So what if I wanted you…oh well.
So what if I felt safe with you…oh well
So what if I saved you…oh well.
So what if I protected you…oh well.
So what if you disowned me…oh well.
So what if we kissed…oh well.
So what if you were lost…oh well.
So what if I showed you the way…oh well.
So what if you walked away…oh well.
So what if you threw it all back in my face…oh well.
So what if you fell and I grabbed your hand…oh well.
So what if I didn’t let go…oh well.
So what if you wanted sympathy…oh well.
So what if you were my life…oh well.
So what if we were friends…oh well.
So what if I cried…oh well.
So what if you lied…oh well.
So what if you begged me to stay…oh well.
So what if I held you close…oh well.
So what if we were warned…oh well.
So what if you were hiding something…oh well.
So what if I wanted to know…oh well.
So what if our promises broke…oh well.

What if they disapproved…we wouldn’t care.
What if they wanted us gone…we would leave.
What if they hated us for what we were…we would hate them back.
What if they tried to change us…we would rebel.
What if they locked us in a cage…we would break out.
What if they wanted us dead…we would die together.
What if they separated us…we would find one another.
What if the world fell around us…we would still have each other.
What if the fall never ended…we would spread our wings and fly.
What if you cried forever…I would be there to offer you a shoulder.
What if you screamed out your fears…I would be there to console you.
What if the arrows came raining down…I’d use my body as a shield.
What if you were alone…I would love you and take you in.
What if you had to leave…I’d beg you to stay.
What if you said you would come back…I’d wait for you forever.
What if they rejected you…I would accept you.
What if you were in danger…I’d be there to save you.
What if you asked for my heart…I’d give it to you.
What if there were strings attached…we’d snap them in half.
What if there were walls surrounding us…we’d break them down.
What if we burned…we would burn like a star…
