Accept Me For Me Or I'Ll Be Gone

There was no way I was able To untie the sturdy cable Wrapped around my shaking neck Because my life became a wreck I hope you find me hanging here A note covered in saddened tears Saying that this was the end And no one will understand All the pain I'm living with Something inside turned a switch Reversing who I'm meant to be Changing my life totally From having friends to no one there I could see the horrid fear In their eyes when I explained That a big and scary change Was happening and I can't stop I need to listen to my heart And go from a football jock To dresses and curly locks Not one friend supported me Even my so called family Shunned me for this "sinful" act So I made a deadly pact To end all this humility Because I just wanted to be Happy for the real me Now I fly with open wings And my heart can really sing A joyful tune as I soar Happy like never before

I agree with Peter, Sweet Pea. Hate that you ever felt this way. Very strong and emotional. Much love and many hugs to you, my sweet friend <3
