hello mom, hello dad, i awake again to hold your hands,
but the mood has changed in my heart today,
i cannot lie to you and live this way,
i fear the things you need to know,
i fear you will my hand let go,
but i need you now, more than ever before
i only pray you will not close the door,
a secret, i have kept locked for far too long,
my heart no longer can sing a song,
for i am gay and content to be
i only hope you can now accept me,
for i am the boy i have always been
its just my love i have for men
but my emotions are the same as my sister clair
i am still the same son you held to you dear.
will you continue to hold my hand as you do,
or now that i am different, i no longer belong unto you,
of love i can have plenty but its yours that i need
the love of my parents who planted my seed,
for you, mine is unconditional love
i shall circle you forever like the long lost dove
but i hope in my heart that nothing will change
you will still hold my hand like nothing arranged,

Welcome to Allpoetry
I would hope that I would love my child no matter what if she came to me with the same thing. No matter my beliefs. Parents should love their children regardless.
I encourage you to keep writing to read and comment.
God Bless

Thank you Little Eagle, a parents love is unconditional no matter what, i am the mother of a gay son and support him in every way, I am a gay rights activist and although I understand that not everyone will understand or agree, it is a subject close to my heart and I will continue to fight for them.
I appreciate your feedback and thank you dearly,
