He said that it was just a phase,

He will be over it in a matter of days,

But days went by and changed to weeks,

And this boy still made him flush his cheeks,

He told me to shut my mouth,

If i shared his secret he would move south,

He was embarresed and ashamed,

Thinking everyone would call him lame,

I did not know what to say or do,

For i had this secret too,

I tried to to tell him to just come out

But how can i do that when i am also in doubt?

He refused to admit that he was gay,

Became angrier and angrier day by day,

He was a raging bull that was out of control,

His love for this boy hurt his soul,

Denial consumed his every thought,

Scared that he was gonna get caught,

I try to help him through all the pain,

But he's slowly starting to go insane,

All these thoughts trapped inside,

All he wants to do is hide.
