hey come look at me
see the colors around
my neck and wrist
my smile is the same
as the one across your face
only there is a rainbow around me
wait you cant see it
your judgement is in the way
hateful words flow from your lips
yet i am wearing the
same clothes as you
laughter dances from my lips
your words cant change
the face staring back at
you from the broken mirror
so shout out loud
the phrase you hate
yes world" i am gay"
What did you think

I love this piece, it says so much about how peoples ignorance get in the way of them seeing others as "HUMAN". I think more people should read this and understand that being gay doesn't change anything about anyone. You did a great job here, I really enjoyed this write.

well um yeah you are gay, sorry...there is nothing u can do to change it. your family will eventually come to their senses. they may not be acceptive...hell i live in a house full of em' but I am happy with myself and i am comfortable enuff with myself to know that yeah I am gay, if they dont approve i dont need them. b.c out of ne thing in my life i am lost and confussed with...at least I do know for sure that i am gay and there is no other way around it. we cant change the way they feel about us....but we can change the way we feel when they see us like that...
just look at it as its their loss...they wana talk...let em. nuthing becomes of them talking behind ur back. gossip gets u no where. i mean may be they got tired of reading enquire magazines. they luv drama or sumthing...
just be you...thats all u can do. u cant change them or what they say or do but u can change the way u feel and w.e else.
life is not made for us to worry about everyone else. there comes a time we have to take time out to worry about ourselves...do whats right, get our stuff together, and just push on through them...is it selfish to take time out to worry about ourselves? umm NO.
because altho its nice to care about other we still have to care enuff about ourselves b4 we can even begin to care for them...
im here if u need me.
and i like all ur thoughts penned onto paper. keep it up its good therapy and the written word heals broken hearts.....
-hugs my friend-
and much love *
