You beat me with your words, You cut me with your lies Haunt me with your hatred, This my doom and demise You suffocate me with your cynicism, Crucify me on your critical cross Make confetti of my ashes, Singing sweet songs at my loss But hear me now, this infinite evil May last for eternities to come But there are more of us claiming our places, Showing our faces to the Sun We shall no longer be slaves of the shadows, Hiding as though we ought to be ashamed But celebrate this absolute triumph: A victory for which we are blamed For we are the rainbows, roaring in the sky We signify hope, hope steadfast Reminding the world and ourselves That no storm is here to last We pray, one day That humanity whose heart is hard to the core Will scrutinise souls based on their Sexuality no more…

In honour of you: LGBTQ
You beat me with your words, You cut me with your lies Haunt me with your hatred, This my doom and demise You suffocate me with your cynicism, Crucify me on your critical cross Make confetti of my ashes, Singing sweet songs at my loss But hear me now, this infinite evil May last for eternities to come But there are more of us claiming our places, Showing our faces to the Sun We shall no longer be slaves of the shadows, Hiding as though we ought to be ashamed But celebrate this absolute triumph: A victory for which we are blamed For we are the rainbows, roaring in the sky We signify hope, hope steadfast Reminding the world and ourselves That no storm is here to last We pray, one day That humanity whose heart is hard to the core Will scrutinise souls based on their Sexuality no more…
