Secret Revealed
she won't accept me as her friend
or the person that i'm meant to be
she will leave in the end
and i'll know it was all because of me
"i'm gay!" that's all i could say
with my voice cracking with every beat
i could tell by her face this was not the day
and my first instinct was to retreat
her face grew hot and her eyes showed red
and her words filled me with tears
telling me to go to hell and wishing me dead
she had now confirmed all my greatest fears
i cradled my head in my hands and cried
as she flew out the back door
she shattered my heart, i should have lied
and i collapsed right there on the floor
