LGBTQ RIGHTS

ODE TO MY SEXUALITY 

Tell my friends I am gay 

Tell my pastor I am queer 

Tell my parents I am a lesbian 

Tell the people in the grocery store I am straight 

Push me into the world 

Rip me out of the closet 

Beat the gay out of me 

Call me a fag 

Use me like a tool 

Drag my heart out of my lively body 

Turn me inside out 

Mold me to who you want me to be 

Try to change me 

Still I will stand PROUD
