Lesbian Poetry

Please

No one ever really knows
What real pain feels like,
Oh you can just forget the guns
And weapons all alike

When your heart is badly broken
The pain is so unreal
It's the one thing that you always hope
You'll never have to feel

For how does one prepare to lose
The ones they've always loved
The two most special little girls
Real blessings from above

Why did you go and take away
My morning, noon, and night
What was it that I did to you
Why do you want to fight?

I am your child, did you forget
The one you promised to protect
Why must you now cause me this pain
What you're doing seems inhumane

They are the reason I live and breathe
The twinkle in my eye
They are the reason I smile each day
Because of them I never cry

Please don't take my girls from me
For I need them and they need me
A family we were
Meant to be

What is it that you're trying to say
I cannot keep them

Because I am gay.
