What I see

What you see, you judge, lable a freak
What you see is a wierdo, troubled and meak
what you decide; a girl who can't have her feelings hurt
Look at that "fag" that "lesbo" you scream and you blurt
through all those days she hides her pain
you'll still call her a "freak" a "lesbo" and lable her insane
you'll never know the pain beneath her scars cuts and burns
she can't take it anymore, self-mutilations she turns
she goes day by day, hateing herself and cutting the pain away
they still call her these names yell them day after day
what I see is an angel locked up tight
I'm not giong to let this angel go-without a fight
I take her in, love her for her
Kiss her wounds, I've become her cure
What they see are the two gay freaks
What we are is in love no longer hateful and weak
I remind her I love her everyday
She's bueatiful, smart, funny, and kind in so many ways
I'll never let go of her she's the light in my life
we prevent eachother from reaching for the knife
I love her and she loves me
But two gay freaks is all they'll ever see

    I first want to thank you for commenting on my Abortion poem. I loved this poem, you put your honest and heartfelt feelings out there, which is what I love to see. This reminded me somewhat of my poem The Pride Within. It is one of my longest, so I thought I would warn you in case you want to read it.

    I know right now you are probably hating being in school being teased and trust me I know how hard that is. But I will tell you that is does get better once you are out of highschool. Those people will not be around and they will not be there to torture you. Keep your head held high and know and believe in yourself, and just ignore the idiots of the world. You know you are better than them and take pride in that!

    This is a really good poem! It sucks how society has to treat us gays and lesbians. We just have to remember to stay strong and always keep our heads held high and our voices heard. Sad part is my parents still think I'm straight and my aunt feels the same way. The rest of my family doesn't know yet. It can be frightening at times when you have a family that's religious. Anyways sorry to rant on GREAT WRITE!
