I Deserve To Be Free

I need to be free why am I chained!
Is all this something that is planned
to leave me confused and strained,
and submitting to being tamed.

What did I do to deserve to be stoned!
My sexuality is not to be blamed
Like everyone else I was also made
to love whoever I find passionate 

I am walking tall but dead inside,
my soul and spirit were ripped apart
the day he found me playing alone outside,
in me he forced himself even when I cried!

I need to be free why am I pained!
My heart was clean why is it stained!
Yes I am a lesbian I am not straight,
does that mean I deserve to be raped?

Twinkle little ones you can shine.
Never let the world try to assign
you in categories that don't define
the true person that you are inside

You deserve to free and be who you are... Sadly some societies do not let people live as they should...
