i told you who i was today
words stolen from my mouth
"I'm not straight."
girls only or boys?
both, i told you
you nodded, relieved.
you said,
"I hope you do the right thing, make the right choice when God judges you."

i've discovered who i really am now
girls only or boys?
girls, i know now
it will be inked on my skin like i've always wanted
you nodded, thoughtful
you said,
"it won't make me love you any less. You are my daughter, and I have loved you from the moment I saw you."

You went from,
"I hope you do what's right when God judges you."
To,
"You may be different to the whole world, but not to me and my heart."

— The End —
