He could not say
hush your lips
and you will be okay
keep them stiched
and youll live another day
dont tell a soul
and just sit there and pray
stay in the closet
don't come out to play
he wanted to tell them
but the voices told him not to say
he grabbed his fathers gun
his decision they could not sway
everyone knew
but didnt care he was gay
he became another statistic
adding to the 150 all in just one day.
