Acceptance

So what you’re gay. 
So what your family won’t take you,
You’ve got a family here. 
I’ve opened my heart to you.
Take it and let it beat with yours.
So what you’re colored,
Motherfucking white or black 
Brown or yellow,
I’m glad you’re colored.
This world is too damn gray.
Our lives are too damn gray.
They could do with a hue.
Make it your own kind(a)
Love, you choose.
But the important thing is 
You choose.

You may be patched together,
Or trying to patch yourself,
Or maybe even trying to rip
The dirty patch the practitioner stitched.
The secret is 
You have my heart. 
I didn’t tell you before, 
I’m telling you now.
So keep yourself safe
For my heart. 
It is 
now 
One with yours.

- Because I care about you
