Make our great escape
away from everyone,
away from here
Cause I'm yours
and you're mine
no one else's
once were gone
you better be ready
cause I'm going to
blow your mind
My love for you
can't be held inside
Were gone, were gone
from disapproving eyes
no more homophobic comments
no more fear
cause were together
children in gods eyes.

The author's comments:
There was alot of talk about me and my boyfriend, people were picking on him alot more than they were with me, cause I had already come out, he was just doing it now. And I was tired of hiding everything, and tired of all the homophobic slurs, because were people too, we have our own thoughts and feelings. All we want is equality, were not out to hurt anyone or convert everyone into being gay, bi, lesbian or a tranny, were just want to live our lives like normal human beings, but with the ones we love. Why is that so difficult?
