Leave us alone
They say we are the evil ones, The ones who demand more they can give. But why is it wrong for me To fight for who I am? Why shouldn’t I be allowed To marry a woman? We are not demanding something They don’t have, We just want to have the same rights And the same opportunities And the same chances As everyone else. Even if some of them try to understand it, They’ll never know how it feels If you can’t tell your own family And your own friends Who you really are deep down inside your heart. They’ll never know how it feels If you don’t know what label fits you While you don’t even want one And just think about it So they feel more comfortable around you. And no, it’s not “just a phase”. Even if it was, its none of their business, So why do they treat it as such? Why can’t they just leave us alone And live their life’s Like anyone else does? All of us, Every single one of us, We are all only human, Nothing more and nothing less. In the end, We all bleed the same blood, No matter who we love or how we look.

Someone’s daughter
I am my parents daughter, But what if I wasn’t? What if I was born somewhere else in the world? I probably wouldn’t be allowed To say my own opinion, Or to wear the clothes I want, Or to love who I want to. I wouldn’t be able To go to school and study, To just meet with my friends Whenever we want to. Every single woman Who has to live a life like this Has earned my highest respect And will never lose it. I know I couldn’t do this If I was in their place. So, please, tell me, Why did I get lucky And not one of them?
