Penny

There is just something

About this one tarnished

And dented penny that

Makes me keep it

In my pocket when

I feel it when I

Look at it I

Don’t think about all

Of the millions of

Other pennies I think

Only of this one

Because it is different

Time

Sometimes it’s just time

Time to fall time

To hope time to

Realize and always time

To feel whatever time

It is trust me

I will know for

My heart is an

Hour glass which turns

Until it eventually stops

Which of course then

Means time is up

Time to go and

Finally time to grow

ComingOut (to Jay)

So you said it

You told the truth

Why you asked me

Is being yourself so

Hard because the world

Doesn’t understand things that

It simply can’t accept

As normal when normal

Isn’t what they do

So you said it

To families and friends

That you are gay

And now your little

Corner of the world

Knows what normal really

Is because you are

Pride 🏳️‍🌈

The funny thing about

Vision is that it

Don’t require eye sight

It does require heart

So just as love

One must learn to

Trust what one cannot

See in order to

Create something extraordinarily beautiful

That only kindred hearts

Are capable of seeing

InLove

Love is the

Song of angels

Being in love

Is a privilege

For being in

Love is taking

One step closer

To your God
