For a long time,

The world is full of grey,

Until seeps a new thing that all treated as "grime",

As everyone saw this said its not okay,

 

Seeing new colors blooming in,

They said this is not acceptable,

For the world is "normal" till this has been seen,

Spreading "contagious" making anyone susceptible,

​

This is a "disease" that needs to be eradicated,

They taught youngsters for they need to be "educated",

Influencing minors for this is immoral,

People who belong to the new colors are likely to be "abnormal",

 

And so they thought why not "correct" their immoral thoughts,

Lead them again to the "right path",

So for many years people who belong to the pride had been shunned and wrought,

They fought but all they experienced is endless wrath,

 

What's heart wrenching is that not only from their family,

But to all the people from the society,

Being different makes them alienated,

Can't tell what they feel to anyone because once everyone knew for sure won't be lenient,

 

When this thing will ever stop?

When will the time come when they'll ever be respected and loved?

All they need is acceptance and for the misconception to drop,

Yet this ongoing fight is a long way so they always feel unloved,

 

Wishing for freedom and safety,

Why not open our minds in this matter which all treats as "heavy"?

Learn all what we don't know about them,

For we might not know this is all it takes to stop the condemn,

 

Again opening new doors is quite risky,

But change is not dangerous as it all seems to be,

To make the world a better place,

Let's start by taking the first pace.
