Be yourself
Letting it be known
But scared to let it be shown
Wondering if you should tell
Or just be told
Being scared of how they’ll treat you
Or worry if they’ll even greet you
To scared to be yourself
All because of someone else
Being called abnormal because of your feelings
Little do they know, it doesn’t help toward the healing
The fear behind losing someone you love
Just because of who you love.
The feelings you can no longer hide
The ones you can no longer keep inside
And soon it became time
To let my feelings shine
Going down on my knees to pray
To finally telling my parents that I’m gay
Not caring what they say
Just being proud that I faved my fear today.
