A Poem

For him

Why did I never see you before?

Why did I never sense it?

Now we're together I makes so much sense

How will the others take it?

How come now both of us hide who we are?

Why do we play this charade?

Are we ashamed if they know we are one?

Can't we walk proud in the parade?

Why the denial to everyone else,

While we flirt when they are around?

All of the looks, and the leading comments,

Yet never utering that one sound?

You came to me and made me realise

That you were the man of my dreams

Why must I hide the fact that's so real?

My love for you secretly streams

Out

Weight lifted

Shoulders lightened

Conscience clean

Senses heightened

Path clear

Future plainer

My life's not

A tea strainer

Mosiac laid

A little further

Picture fuller

Me and lover

Sit among friends

Feel supported

Chat freely

Events reported

Sleep easy

Type freely

Speak open

Confidently

Gone

Why did it have to end this way?

Why so out of the blue?

Why did you take it out on me,

When others starting talking of you?

How can rumours be rumours if true?

Why are you scared to be us?

Are you so worried that being gay limits you?

Cause I always thought you had guts.

So turn me away, act straight if you most

I know what really goes on.

You'll just hurt yourself as you battle on.

Trying to act like nothings wrong

Here's hoping you have what it takes to become

The man that I thought that you were.

But your more like the child I was when we first kissed

That night you took me unaware

So carry on trying, the world to fool

Cause one day it will end in tears.

But don't expect me to run to your side

I'll be facing the world without fears
