my mother once told me
about one of her friends
how he was like no other
and everyone knew him
he was gay you see
some people turned him away for this
he was sweet as can be
nice to everyone he see's
after everyone went their different ways
a few years later getting a phone call
dying from aids
my mother tells me this story
and that no one will ever forget him
i write this story now
for everyone to see
that everyone is different
but we can all get this disease
