Gay Is the Straightest Word

Gay is the straightest word
It takes a stand
Says I am different 
But I do not care
I love the one I love
I have a connection
I know how to touch that emotion
Gay is happy
Gay is strange
Gay we fear
Gay is the straightest word
Stands for everything we believe in
Love is love
Love is true
Just the same
A bond
A foundation of family
Everything straight is everything loved between a guy and girl
Gay is a beautiful relationship between two individuals made as one
Standing strong in the face of anger
Taking on religion
Gay has every right
Deserve the same treatment
Recognize it's love
Straight love makes a person gay beyond belief
