Bridge with no return


I thought about it so many times, I told my mom that I wanted to move on. I looked into my closet and found..... Memories that aren't bond. I lost my innocence on my way here, Their voices fill me with afflication and tears.. "Stop saying you can't" my dad would say, I'll reach the school principal and set things straight. "Hold my hand and come with me", "I need to know why you can't express this thing". Don't be shy Be a man Don't hide why tell me so I could understand. "But, dad I can't, I would say "I just want to dive...... "seize the ocean, sink my pain... "Is there another way to this"? "Yes, there is", he would say. "I'm broken dad" Now tell why humanity is so cruel Online there's pictures of me and my love one... Please, don't mistreat me for being your son Who's sexuality orientated.
