Gay

by Andrew Binsted, age 16, from US

I know there are certain people,
Who'll always be there for me
But others are just full of ignorance,
And find it impossible to see.

That I am still a person,
And I still have feelings too
They've never had the confusion,
That I am going through.

I will try to be strong,
I'll try my very best
To forget about negativity's,
And prove I'm better than the rest.

I know it's gonna be tough,
And hard to keep being me
But as friends keep on saying,
Just be who you want to be.

Life will never be easy,
I'll take it stride by stride
I know who are my friends,
And in them I will confide.
