I will never bend
Someday people will understand that they do not define who other people are. People will soon realize that normal does not exist in the real word. Normal is just a figment of one's imagination and nothing more. Is all this violence and hatred really worth it? People die every day and the reasons just seem to become more asinine. It's enough that people give up their lives because two men can't agree with one another. It saddens me deeply that people will beat, torture, and even kill someone just because they like a certain gender. I hope, and even pray, that a time will come when someone doesn't have to fear persecution over the person they choose to love.
I think I'm finally ready
I just need to take this slow and steady
Reality will never bend to my will
And my chances sometimes seem to be nil.
Though these times seem to be my darkest hours
I refuse to willingly bend to their overwhelming powers
Society will never have me in a noose
For every time I will cut myself loose.
I know that I can not do this on my own
However with the friends I've gained my strength has grown
I will continue to hold my head up high
I will never let them cause my hope to die.
Even if I'm surrounded by hopelessness and despair
I will never give up my place in this societal warfare
Who are they to judge me for whom I kiss
I guess for them ignorance is really bliss.
