the fear of the future,
devours me
it eats me whole,
and shows me no mercy
I lie awake at night,
the moonlight softly showing
through my blinds,
and am stirred by the thought
of the future
when I come out to my family,
what will happen?
will they try to beat it out of me,
will they kick me to the curb,
or will they stand by my side,
waving a flag in pride?
what will the future hold?

the fear of the future,
devours me
it eats me whole,
and shows me no mercy
I lie awake at night,
the moonlight softly showing
through my blinds,
and am stirred by the thought
of the future
when I come out to my family,
what will happen?
will they try to beat it out of me,
will they kick me to the curb,
or will they stand by my side,
waving a flag in pride?
what will the future hold?
