two young girls,
walk slowly up the stairs,
they reach the top,
bells begin to ring,
****** is on the loose,
as big as a moose,
the girls run back down the stairs,
with shaking hands,
they were terror-stricken,
they call the police,
and wait,
wait.

I'll love you forever, she said,
I found the hard way it was false,
we lay in bed,
she looked me dead in the eye,
"I'll love you forever"

by next week she hated me.

I sit in bed, and wonder,
while hearing roars of thunder,
why must my parents hate me,
why can't they let me be,
they say they don't like my "type"
well, I don't want to be categorized,
I wish not to be deprived of my rights,
they say it's just a phrase, it will go by fall,
they say I'm a shame to the family,
just for loving someone of the same gender,
why can't they see what I see,
someone whos tender,
someone whos kind,
someone I will never stop loving.

No matter what.
