Joy, Love, and Pride!

It's so hard to get through this

Every day is a constant fight

The pain is a never-ending abyss

How do you make it through the night?

I watch you with your fancy things

Your perfect life, never a tear in sight

But for me, it's a different game

I struggle to put up a brave fight

I've been slut shamed, called disgusting

Just because I am different, not the same

But why are you so obsessed with me

What is it that fuels your cruel flame?

You laugh at my misfortunes

You want me to feel ashamed

But I won't succumb to your taunts

I won't let my spirit be tamed

I may be original, I may be unique

But I am not what you call me

I am not a liar, or a deviant, a crazy freak.

An it, or faggot, or a monster, or a tranny

I am simply trying to be free

It's so hard to say goodbye

To the hurt that you bring

But I won't let it break me

I'll spread my wings and sing

For the root to compassion

Is love, a two way street

But you're consumed by your own passion

And that is what makes us different, you see

So while you continue to judge me

Talk your shit because now I can care less

Have your fits and tantrums

You can see for yourself who will take your side. 

Because that is typical you.

You are the same pathetic person you always were.

I may be bold, but atleast; I'm decent and kind

Cuz me and my family are in the state of bliss

In harmony and as God as my witness,

I'll rise above, let my true self shine

For I am proud of who I am

And that, my friend, is divine

So goodbye to the former

I'll let the pain subside

And I'll embrace my true self......

With love, joy, and pride.
