Who I Am
They say we’re supposed to be with other people
Am I not supposed to be with the one I love?
They say we’re not really “in love”
Did I really get to choose who I love when I was born?
They say it’s wrong and impossible to love the same sex
Is anything really impossible?
Is anything wrong if it’s not hurtful?
I’ve been kicked from my own house
Disowned by all my friends
Your family loves you
Do you love me?
Even if you don’t you’re all I need
The only one I want to adopt a child with
The only one I want to marry
The only one I want to spend the rest of my life with
No matter what they say, I do love you
And I hope that you will stay
Something wrong with this poem?
