..My little secret... I AM GAY I am coming out Not caring what you think about me Your smiles or frown It makes no difference I am tired of hiding in the dark Wondering what the warmth of the sun feels like Imagining what it means to throw my head back And inhale the freshness of the evening breeze I am sick of the glimpses I see when I dare to poke my head out It leaves me more distraught than I was And rather than quell the yearning It fans it into a roaring inferno of need I am tired of placing my head over my heart And telling my heart to be still No, I am not going to stop my heart from beating From pulsing and its life giving flow I am coming out Breaking through the thin veil Dropping the façade and done hiding I am gay! I am a butterfly, No longer a worm despised and weak I was born to roam free And not to be wrapped in a cocoon I am gay, Full of cheer and warmth Colorful and bright And coaxing giggles from amused children I am gay I am full of life Spreading my wings Taking my flight to heights untold
