Can you see

A poem about feelings and people making fun of me.

Can you see
This is all about you and me.
My feelings are sweet,
Treat me some respect.
Everyday I heard people calling me gay,
By the way for those of you,
who think I'm gay, should suffer my pain.
That all I've to say, I'm not gay.
People have their own feelings.
Can you see
They've to suffer for this everyday.
It makes me sad,
When people get all mad.
Sometimes I wish I can make them all glad,
My feelings are lovable.
Can you see
I can make you more joyful.
If you could only believe in me,
Let it be peace,
For you and me.

Author's Note

This is for the people who called me a fag back in high school.

Intense Writing with a pretty sad background story. I can somehow relate with this poem (not the f*g-calling part, though). I totally understand how frustrating it feels when people judge just because, and you know that you can make them really happy if they just allow you to. This is definitely a wonderful poem, very meaningful and realistic.

Keep Writing. ^___^

Nice view of the past through forgiveness. Most of us have been picked on. It is extremely hard to forgive. Nice write.

People can be very mean, they shouldn't be. Your poem shows much kindness. Beautiful pen on this.
