Would You


What would you do, what would you say,

if sometime soon, I said I was gay?

Would you laugh or would you wonder,

what it was that pulled me under?

Would you praise me or would you cry,

would you say to my face, "I'd rather you die?"

What would you do, what would you say,

if sometime soon I said I was gay....

I guess it's to laugh or wonder,

what it was that pulled me under...

I guess it's time to praise or cry,

or say to my face, "I'd rather you die..."

What will you do, what will you say,

now that you know that I Am Gay?

Let's see.... I have a beautiful young boy who is the center of my world. Thankfully I have a wonderful husband who is an outstanding daddy. :) I've been writing for a real long time however I haven't found anything to write about. After seeing just a few poems here, it's obvious that I've held in more emotions than I intended. In short I should be back on my poetry slammer in a short while. ;)
