When I Was Younger

When I was younger I had family members which were gay But, I didn't want to be that way, I was always happy the way that I was And I always felt love. When I was younger I went to the library I still remember reading, "The Little House On The Prairie", I also saw and read other books that they now want to ban Including, "1984", "To Kill A Mockingbird" and maybe even "Peter Pan". When I was younger I loved watching any comedy show Especially with Larry, Curly. and Moe, And I laughed and I laughed and I will still laugh all over again Whenever I see them dressed up like women. When I was younger a gun or rifle I never shot And I never smoked cigarettes, drank beer or took pot, And now I am a father and a very proud adult And who I became it was from my own desires and that result. When I was younger I didn't want to be anyone else but me Even though I knew my body and my soul was free, And if I became someone you didn't liked or believed in That would had been my decision alone, not any other women or men.
