"I'm sorry," he said, his face cast downcast
Fear pumping his heart
His eyes creating pools
"Why?" she asked, anxious by the way he had been acting the last few days
"I don't...I'm sorry"
She wasn't shocked, in the back of her mind she knew
Even without him saying his full sentence
She knew
But she wanted to know why
When she asked, her heart sank lower when he raised his head and looked her in the eyes and said, "Because I'm gay"
She forgave him
