I lie in my bed, machines surround me.
Does life beat death in this fear-filled reality?
The plants by my bed on the dull chest of drawers,
Droop like my soul through these hospital wars.
Could this be it-the last page of my story?
The end of my road but the start of purgatory?

The woman comes in, can i do this again?
Just as usual, an air of sorrow descends.
‘Your iron is too high’
‘There's not an oxygen supply’
I’m sick and I’m tired of playing this game,
My tears are flowing, they’re curling the page.

Is it bad that I want this to be the end?
How to go on I can’t comprehend.
Day in day out the same shaking ink,
My motive seeping out-is it time to rethink?
‘It’s all in your head’ - then does it matter if I’m dead?
You let me live- inside I die.
But my friends, my family-how do I say goodbye?

The last page of my life yet it's not been too long.
I preach to stay fierce yet I couldn’t stay strong.
Tell my mother I loved her, that my friends kept me here
But it's not all as easy as it sometimes appears.
To turn the machines off, to end my short tale
It's definitely been a journey-I give one final exhale…

Goodbye.

At peace are those,
Who smile at the rainbows,
The society defying, gender unidentifying,
Unapologetic beings with declarations,
Always challenging your expectations.
To declare their love for the same, but different,
Whether it's L, it's G, it's B,T or Q
You are beautiful just being you.

Joined together by a strong bond of love
Man, women, trans or all of the above
Find your harmony in others hearts
Let all their stereotypes swiftly depart
Male or female you decide
May all your fears quickly subside
Whether it's L, it's G, it's B, T or Q
You are beautiful just being you

So there's this wonderful thing called gay
It's not a disease it isn't a issue
It's not an affliction-I could continue
It doesn’t need treatment and no it isn't a phase
And it still deserves love through this fear ridden haze.
Whether it's L, it's G, it's B, T or Q
You are beautiful just being you.

Men are pretty, women are strong
Whoever you love you’ll still belong
Deep in the hearts of those who care
Is acceptance of your love-whether it's Cody or Claire
Bi is both loving and compassionate,
You should show the same emotions, support them, don’t be irrationate.
Whether it's L, it's G,it's B,T or Q
You are beautiful just being you

You can be a woman you could be a man,
Or a mix of the two,
or neither at all if that's what suits you
Drag king or queen, cisgender or trans
Whatever it is, the Lord’s got great plans.
Whether it's L, it's G,it's B,T or Q
You are beautiful just being you

A confused poor soul, alone in the world
Trying to find their place with a boy or a girl
There is a parade where you belong
And to be confused isn’t wrong
Love yourself inside and out
We are your shield to protect you from doubt
Whether it's L, it's G, it's B, T or Q
You are beautiful just being you.

Shame is an ocean we all swim across
But what truly matters is you know your on top
Don't let anyone tell you near or far
Doesn’t matter their status or battle scars
That you are unworthy of their respect
Because you my child are simply perfect.
Whether it's L, it's G, it's B, T or it's Q
You are so beautiful just being you.
