You wonder why I didn't tell you sooner.
About such a big piece of myself.
Even though I had to listen to you condemn those like me
for over a decade.
Show me how to be honest with you
amidst:
"Being gay isn't natural"
"It just makes me sick"
"I just don't want it fuckin' rubbed in my face"
Yeah, dad.
Show me how.
