Today
I decided to come out today.
Yes, I told the whole world I was gay.
This was not as bad as I thought it would be.
No one threw rocks or bullets at me.
But it wasn't peaches and cream either, you see.
I got the expected laughs and scorns.
(I said "I can't help it. That's how I was born.")
When I tell my parents, their hearts will be torn.
"A fag! A fag? I didn't reaise no queer!"
This I know is what I will hear,
but don't worry. I have nothing to fear.
If they still love me, well then that's great.
And if not, well, I'll have to deal with their hate.
There's nothing I can do. This is my fate.
I decided to come out today.
You know, it was pretty easy to say.
