Prom queens wear their gleaming crowns
High heeled shoes
Princess gowns
With their kings they prance around
Strutting their stuff
I can't imagine how they feel
In their crowns
In their heels
They have so much glam, so much appeal
For students, that's enough
For the king, a different plan
You win the queen
And you're the man
He'll probably date the girl again
Not much one can do
Popularity is the key
To win the prize
To be the bee
(Of course I refer to the "Queen Bee")
Popularity contest, true
But say the king didn't need a queen
Despite the crown
And all that gleams
But instead needed another king
To love and hold tight
And say that queen didn't need her king
Despite her gown
And everything
But maybe needed her very own queen
And they would grow old right
But society doesn't work that way
Differ from the norm
And people shy away
We can't embrace this idea today
That there could be two queens in gowns
Being gay's hard and I should know
Human's can't sit back
And enjoy the show
It's hard to live in a world where you constantly know
That you can't have two gleaming crowns
High heeled shoes
Princess gowns
With their kings they prance around
Strutting their stuff
I can't imagine how they feel
In their crowns
In their heels
They have so much glam, so much appeal
For students, that's enough
For the king, a different plan

And you're the man
He'll probably date the girl again
Not much one can do

I Said It
The words flew out,
after years of denial,
repression and prayer.
A warm chill consumed my person,
as much as a contradiction as I feel.
I gasped at what I had done.
Why did I do it?
Why did I tell HIM??
Why am I even asking these questions?
For the first time in years,
I feel good.
Really good!
I want to shout it from the top of this little town
and yet I feel more repressed than ever.
I realize the consequences of my actions,
of my words.
"I'm gay".
Literature
Unconditional love?
Is your love really unconditional?
Even if I stray from the traditional?
Will you still love me then?
Even if I love other men?
Im still your son
I still love you a ton
Cant you see?
I just wanted to show you the real me
Can you accept it, please?
For me?
Literature
True or False
You say
'I'm not pretty.'
You say
'I'm fat.'
You say
'I don't deserve you.'
I say
'You lie.'
You tell me not to think negatively,
Yet you do so anyways.
The truth is...
You're absolutely beautiful.
You're not fat.
I don't deserve you.
You can say that I lie
All you want.
Because I'll just keep saying the same things
Over and over again
Until you see yourself
Through my eyes.
As the
Strong
Beautiful
Wonderful
Amazing
Girl I fell in love with.

I wrote this poem for the LGBT day .
This is in the POV of a teenage lesbian at prom.
I got the idea while at our homecoming pep-rally; I was watching the homecoming queens get anounced and celebrated and I was wondering why in the hell we can't have homosexual kings and queens.
Why? Because America is ignorant, that's why!
Anyway, enjoy my poem, but please don't leave hate comments!
EDIT: This was published in a local literary magazine! Thank you so much folks!
