Different
I see the way you stare at me.
I can see right through you.
I see the way you hate me
because I break the "rules."
I lay down with man
While you lay down with woman.
I see the way you make fun of me.
I can see you laugh.
I see the way you hate me
Because I'm gay.
You hate me, because I'm not like you.
You hate me, because I'm different.
I may be different, but it doesn't make me love any different.
I put one shoe on at a time, just like you.
I see the way you stare at me.
I can see right through you.
I see the way you love me
God, how come they can't be just like you?

Closet
Masks do we weave
Walls does society build
Worlds created that we can not leave
Can one break free even if willed?
A life condemned lies
Forced to die
Hidden, and estranged,
from society by far
Not living who you are
Looking out on the world
The future that can never be
As you ride the worlds sea
The community's hatred unfurled
Everyone should be free
Why,
Oh why am I not free to be me?
