Gay boy, straight girlYou looked at meGay boy, straight girl
And told me I would never understand
The ins and outs of gay world
And I stared back at you
And told you
That didn't matter because I understood you
Behind all the make-up
And costumes
And heels
You were just a boy
Fighting to be
Defending your sexuality at every turn
But I never judged you by it
For I was just the straight girl
Running so hard from her past
Leaving only dust in my wake
I fell in love with you
You became my family
For you didn't see that scared abused girl
Who I'd fought so hard
--
"And the point is, to live everything! Live the questions now." Rainer Maria Rilke
