I'm here, I'm queer, it's that time of the year
To be yourself for all to see
Some people don't seem comfortable here
And frankly dear, it's not my cup of tea
Hearing others say they don't like the gays
These times leave me with such confusion
I'll keep praying for better days
Sometimes I feel this was all an illusion...
Still struggling to love the skin I'm in
Learning to accept myself for me
Unsure exactly of where to begin
Confused as to why I can't be free
So now once more I must look within
Learning to love the person I see
People still say this love is a sin
I'll forget it all once I count to three...
Waking up gay, yeah that's not how it happened
Somewhere along the line I had a fatal attraction
First time being called gay, my mood dampened
All I saw was ass, one hell of a distraction
I can't help that I liked what I saw
Too naive to know better at the time
If only I'd known then to see my flaw
Maybe I too, could've found me a dime...
It's finally my month, yet I don't feel pride
It's my chance to shine, yet still I hide
Just trying to figure out why it is I lied
This unwavering feeling as if I'd died
Thinking things through as I take this ride
Remembering all of the tears I've cried
No longer will I be pushed aside
Lookout world, 'cause I'm outside!
Love who you love without regrets
Not caring about what others think
That's when you love the best
Do your best to earn that ring
Be happy with who you've become
Show everyone just how special you are
Remind the scum that couldn't make you cum
It's showtime baby, you're the star!

PoetryNot a story, just a collection of "poems" I've attempted to write in a way to express my thoughts and what's going on in my mind. Helping to sort out what I'm filling inside, and just kind of to help see where my heads at with things...
