Because I wanted too...
Some Of Those Closest To Me Chose To Turn Their Backs,
While Others, Not so Close Chose To Love Me Back,
In Spite Of All My Flaws, I May Not Be Complete,
But I Am Genuine,
I Will Not Be A Hypocrite, Even Though I Might,
Complain Of How I'm Treated, Or Even Have to Fight
Because Of Who I Love, Human Though I Am,
I Am Treated Less Than That Because Love A Man,
No Matter That I treat With Civility,
My Tormentors and Those That Revile Me,
Never Have I Thought, Even If I Could,
Would I change This, Not At All, It Is A Part Of Me,
It Makes Me Who I Am, Gives Me Individuality,
Crushing Though It Is What People Seem To Think,
I Have Leanred Not Everything Is Exactly What You Think,
Your Parents Claim They Love You,
Though Secretly They Wish
Nothing But To Change You,
To Make You Less Than This,
The Person Who You Are,
The Individual,
The One Who Will Endure, Though They May Fall
Now I've Come To The End Of It,
The Completion Of My Work,
And All I Have To Say Is This,
Be Careful Who You Hurt
------------
Telling Them Was So Easy, I didn't Even Think,
That Revealing This Would Cause Such Strife,
Lost Friends, Lost Love, And Uncertainty
Of What My Parents Really Think,
Though They Say They Love Me
I Have Gotten Used To Living On The Brink,
Of Society, Their Norms Will Change,
But I Remain, In My Honesty,
Being Me And Only Me,
Not What They Would Make Of Me
