You need to understand this about me <br />I love who I am with and who I am <br />But there are some things you must see <br />For me to even give a damn. <br /> <br />I am more than gay <br />I am a person just like you <br />I am capable of feeling every way <br />And I enjoy the same things you do. <br /> <br />Instead of telling me who I should love <br />Ask what I want to be <br />Ask what I do to feel above <br />Then maybe you could get to know ME! <br /> <br />Understand me for all that I enjoy <br />Try to genuinely care <br />Instead of telling me to be with a boy <br />Try to imagine yourself with my burden to bare. <br /> <br />I am not ashamed of me and her <br />But there is far more to me than this <br />So if my being lesbian is turning you cur <br />Feel free to look away as we kiss.<br /><br />Amber Green<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/more-than-this/
