Me
Dear Mom
I died the day
you asked me
to stop being gay...
I tried to hide...
Just to please you...
you said,
I wouldn't go to HEAVEN...
your words tore
into my flesh
and into my heart.....
you destroyed my soul...
you were embarrassed
every time I was exposed...
I have decided to stand proud...
So, I will move away....
I pray and I hope
that one day you will
accept the child you gave birth to
ME....
