It’s as cold as ice 

The darkness from inside the room begins to consume my heart

And the scent of despair fills the small room 

I sit in the corner 

Trying to find courage to get out 

But every time I reach for the door I throw my self against the wall 

Fearing the outside full of judgment 

As their words fill my mind 

Tears begin rushing down my face 

If they won’t let me come out how do I live 

How do I find true love and get looked at with hatred for it 

Eyes piercing like knives into my heart 

I can’t let them win 

I won’t let them win 

I wipe away the tears and get up onto my feet reaching for the door 

Reminding myself I’ve done nothing wrong 

Accept me or not I’m following my heart 

A heart full of love that shouldn’t be frowned upon 

I’m done hiding from the outside 

It’s time to come out of the closet
