Pairing: Billie Joe/Mike
Disclaimer: This is purely fictional, and the shemxy boys mentioned within do not belong to me.
Notes: Drabble, from Mike's POV. Extremely sappy.
Inspired by this line from "Cooling" by Tori Amos: "And is heaven worth giving up these kisses?"

They say that God is love, but that love can be wrong and twisted to the extent that Congress needs to take time out from fighting drugs and wars to pass laws that fight guys who fall in love with other guys.
We have a government determined to fight terrorism in God's name, but wasn't God annihilating the the people of Sodom with no care for the guilt or innocence terrorism?
Isn't it terrorism to gradually deprive a group of people of their rights and stir up so much hostility to them in their own god-damned country, hell, their own goddamned HEADS, that they spend their whole lives looking over their shoulder for danger and simultaneously watching what they say to the people they love until the deception fucks them over in the head and they're driven crazy just because of who they fall in love with?
I lean over and clasp your left hand in mine, delighting in the feel of your smooth warm skin, your fingers dotted with callouses from playing the guitar you love so much, and I trace the delicate lines that cross your palms.
They read like my Holy Gospel, the story of a life that means so much, that's provided inspiration, that's given me comfort when it felt like I had nothing.
People ask me, what will you say to the Lord on judgement day? Haven't you tried to change? Don't you want to get into heaven?
And to them, tonight, I ask , what heaven could you promise me that's sweeter than this?
