PLEASE READ WHAT'S UNDER THIS!!

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.

I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.

I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.

We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.

I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into theroom.

I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.

I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.

I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.

We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.

I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called onme.

I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.

I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.

I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.

I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.

I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I did not have to always deal with society hating me.

I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.

I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.

I am the person who is afraid of telling his loving Christian parents he loves another male.

Slap!
I never do anything wrong
even though I don't you hit me all day long
Slap!
you just hit me again till I'm black and blue
all just because I looked at you
Slap!
you hit me hard across the face
screaming at me saying I'm a disgrace
Slap!
you hit me again just because I asked you why
why do you shout ugly words at me
why do you wish I would die
Slap!
you never hear my screams
you always break my dreams
you never hear my beg
you throw me against the wall and break my leg
Slap!
you hit me for talking back
you hit me so hard I heard a crack
Slap!
Daddy I don't care what you do
I will always love you
I can no longer make a sound
For now I'm buried in the ground
Even though now I look down upon you from above
I will always send you my love
Oh daddy I love you but I wish you would learn
your supposed to look at a child with love but your look is so stern
But remember what I told you daddy before I died
I don't care daddy what you do
I will always love you

Two more legs that will never run
One more mouth that will never speak
