RememberingThe worst part is remembering.
Remembering the feel of his shirt,
the sound of his laugh,
the roll of his eyes when Michelle Bachman opens her mouth,
the security of his embrace,
the warmth of his unique love,
the fact that he misses me too.
That's the killer.

For Those Who Are BrokenIt Gets Better

"Hey you, trying so hard not to cry, well. I know you're fed up. But keep you're head up."*

I've been there. I think we all have. Standing still upon that ledge, up on your toes, just waiting for the slightest wind to push you down again. But it would be too late this time. You would really hit the ground this time.

"'Cause people only see what they wanna. People don't believe what they're gonna. They don't understand the life that you 'choose.' They never walked a mile in your shoes."*

This is for you when you are done. When the last straw is withering, and your feet become too damn weak to help you stand or run. When no o

Please...We don't hate you for being straight...
..why hate us for being gay?

I look around...we aren't any different.
We hate.
We cry.
We feel.
We dance.
We laugh.
We fall.
We rise
We love.

But not if we are brought down.
We cannot help who we love, whether they be male, female, or none of the above; Love Is Love, No Matter What.

So, the next time you say, "That's gay!' "Fag! "Slut." "Homo!" "Queer!" Please, stop and think about this;

How are we different from you?
We all have...
Two eyes.
One pair of lips.
Two lungs.
Intestines.
Two arms.
Two legs.
Bones.
Muscle.
...and hearts.

My Dear MamaMama-
I don't understand. You've already accepted me, right? You said "I will always love you, no matter what." but what did you mean by it?
I know it's confusing. When just yesterday I would wake up and ask you to braid my hair, or when you would dress me in my best green dress for Christmas service. I know it seems like just moments ago I had ringlets of hair that bounced at my waist. I know it seems like I'm taking this from you, these memories you hold dearest of me and my childhood. I know it panics you to think that that little girl of your dreams is gone forever. But mama, I'm still here. The same person you created and brought up. T

She's One...She's One of Those Girls
Who's nothing but trouble,
just one look...

and she makes me wonder why i pushed her so far away
even though it's been almost 5 years
i still fucking love her.

her...
that's what freaked my dad out
the wanting to be a him?
that was for mom.

i'm not sure...
there's a line that i'm scared to cross
between "genderqueer" and "transgendered"
maybe i don't want to
but i do at the same time
so that i can be someone
she can be with in public
without her family being mad at her

but... this is about her...
the woman i'm in love with.
she's just... one of those girls
you can't forget her.

she's strong whe

One More WordOne More Word

Freedom of speech
and you think you can say anything
you please.
Throw your darts,
they sink deep.

What do you care?

The word you say
don't mean anything to you,
they mean so much
to the ones listening.

Loser

A boy looks in the mirror
and all he sees
is your words painted on his face,
etched deep into his skin.
Never going away.
He cries,
tears splashing the sink.
Do you know what pain
You are causing?

Freak

Fighting against your voice.
Screaming
Calling out.
Someone has to listen.
You don't care.
No one will believe.
No one will care.
You slip through
and he shrinks away as you p

CloserEye to eye
Skin to skin
Uttering words
Now and then

Limbs entangled
Fingers interlaced
Feeling so loved
In your warm embrace

Two people as one
A meeting of minds
That's better than
All good things combined

Breath in rhythm
Cheek to chest
Wishing to stay here
Block out all the rest

Glad that you're here
Your chin on my head
Our scents will linger
Long after bed

LGBT Opinion, Theory of Knowledge Style"I Support Gay Marriage, or as I like to call it, marriage. Because I parked my car today-I didn't gay-park it." This quote, even though I cannot remember who it's by, is one of my favorite quotes. It highlights exactly how I feel about gay marriage, and the subject of homosexuality in general. When I went to see the One-Acts, The Laramie Project stood out to me because it reminded me how homophobic our world is. There are people in the world-in CCDS-who think that being gay is a separate lifestyle, a sinful choice, or a disease. This appalls me and angers me to a point where I tear up. Why am I so passionate about this? Why do I push so hard

And a human being.

AshiteruWhen I stopped breathing my heart went numb
And the waves of my heart began to drum

You would smile at me and I would slowly break down
It was only you and me and no one else around

My once fragile life burst into dust
Having you with me was always a must

Looking back at it now you took my breath from me
The first time you kissed me was a guarantee

It sent shivers down my body and rattled my spine
You branded me and owned me with your spark of design

And when you would sleep I'd still be awake
My nerves still shook and they continued to quake

You looked like an angel sent from above
No matter how cliché; it's what we call lo
