My heart goes out for those who've lost loved ones because of differences. P.S. I don't usually write poetry at all and I know I am a complete novice when it comes to writing it, but I felt like sharing it with all you wonderful folk. This was a poem I wrote when I was in an emotional state when I finally accepted my LGBT sexuality. Silent we were Our hearts beat strong Together they sound as one -  -  -  -   Battered and bruised our bodies become Our hearts beat strong We stand together as one -  -  -  -   Our fists are thrown in the air And we chant We chant with all our might -  -  -  -   Our long silence is broken In the eyes of MLK and Mahatma Violence in our actions will be the death of us -  -  -  -   We stand as one to fight for one Others are granted this right but we are not We are discriminated and we suffer But no longer will we stand this intolerance  -  -  -  -   We are human They are human We are the same Yet we are not -  -  -  -   Our hearts reach for those willing We are a loving force A fighting force Never a violent force -  -  -  -   Until that day that comes We grow stronger day by day -  -  -  -   Until that day that comes We stand strong When freedom touches upon us -  -  -  -   Until that day that comes We stand as one Source: https://sofurry.com/s/ZeqZrRMm
