Inspiration


Simple

Sweet

All around

Inspiration! 

It's hard to be found

 

Love

Friendship

In-betweens

Inspiration!

Sometimes it can't be seen 

 

My friends

and family

my teachers too

Inspiration!

I need something new

 

One day I found

The inspiration I need

that Inspiration?

That was me

 

I am made 

of everything around

Beauty and sadness

Things lost to the ground

 

But I know 

That I am truly made

Of all the Inspirations 

thrown in my way

 

I love my friends

They have made me 

a better person

and truly inspired me 

 

And my family

despite giving me grief

have inspired within me 

all of my beliefs

 

To my fellow queers,

to know you are there,

may be the greatest 

inspiration of all

 

You are seen

We are seen 

We are togehter

No matter the weather

 

You have inspired me 

To be myself 

No matter what that may be 

 

You've had the best impact

And that's a fact

I'll love you all

Through it all

Thank you for all you've done

But our battle is not yet won

 

We lean on each other

Sisters and brothers

And those like me 

That are in-between 

We are all seen 

 

This inspires me 

To be better

No matter the weather

I will spread our message

Of love

And tolerance

To those 

Who are bigots 

And need our message

Of inspiration

And love

And acceptance
