Lesbian Lover
Every day
 People face  the hardships of being gay.
 Why does it have to be a struggle?
 If this was the wizarding world  they’d be muggles.
 
 In 1964 segregation ended.
 Doesn’t that mean inclusion is intended?
 Integration isn’t just about blacks and whites
 it’s about basic human rights.
 
 Man, woman, black,white.
 Gay isn’t on that list and that just ain’t right.
 Being gay is a sin
 at least that’s the way things have been.
 You say homophobia is the word of god
 and quite honestly your method is flawed.
 Every time they look at your face
 you instantly show that they’re out of place.
 
 Equality for gays will no longer remain unwritten
 and with that I’m quite smitten.
 Homosexuality
 will no longer be associated with police brutality. 
 I can now take  part in celebration
 of this cancellation 
 of segregation. 
 Now that I no longer have to remain undercover,
 I have a lesbian lover.

Favorite Quote:
“I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes so madly indulge. It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason. It has been the desperate attempt to escape from torturing memories, from a sense of insupportable loneliness and a dread of some strange impending doom.” <br /> ― Edgar Allan Poe
