"Choice"?

Then you think we make a choice.
But guess what
We don't.
And why would we?

Because people like you,
We are forced to hide ourselves
To hide in plain sight,
Living to everyone else

We can't talk about the one we like,
As long as they are the same gender as us,
So we sit in silence,
Uncomfortable and still,

Constantly afraid of slipping up
Afraid of people not accepting us
We can't freely love who we love,
Because of what people might do or say to insult and hurt us.

And we never hear about LGBT issues on the news
Because people still aren't passed it
People still don't accept us
People still hate us, don't accept us and are bothered by us.
