GAY by G. S. Apparition

I cannot close my eyes.
My memories are plaguing me.
I've wished a thousand times
For the world to forget me.

And then I hear a voice.
It is slow and calling me.
It burns my mind, but not with pleasure.
And slowly, it caresses me.

It tells me things I need not hear
About the world surrounding me.
It captures me with deadly fear.
The thrusting horrors devour me.

I cannot speak or hide.
It numbs my throat and shadows me.
Voices call out from the grave,
Desperate to make a slave of me.

What is it, you ask,
That feeds its tortures into me?
It's the clinging cruelity of the world
And the hatred that surrounds me.

It says to pull the trigger,
Or it will stop the pain for me.
It threatens with bashers and rapists,
And pushes its poison inside of me.

But then I think that I am strong.
Am I going to let the hatred rule me?
Will I hide my feelings from the sight of all?
Will I ever show the true me?

One brave soul is all it takes
For them to see the mighty me.
I am gay and here I stand
To face the world in front of me.

I stop the voices and the shadows.
They will no longer torture me.
The hatred will continue, but so will I.
And I'll break down the doors for all that follow me.

I am strong.

I am human.

I am gay.

I will no longer be afraid
Of the world that surrounds me.
