I’m standing tall

In a world filled with love, I found my truth,
But my family's acceptance feels so far removed.
I long for their embrace, their understanding,
But their judgment and rejection, it's so demanding.

I'm just trying to be true to who I am,
But their closed minds, they don't understand.
I'm searching for love, for acceptance and grace,
But their disapproval, it's a constant chase.

I'm standing tall, though my heart feels heavy,
In a world that's supposed to be loving and steady.
But I won't let their rejection define my worth,
I'll find my own family, a place of love and mirth.

I've tried to explain, to open their eyes,
But their prejudice and ignorance, it never dies.
I'm still their child, with dreams and desires,
But their love, it's conditional, fueled by fires.

I'm just trying to be true to who I am,
But their closed minds, they don't understand.
I'm searching for love, for acceptance and grace,
But their disapproval, it's a constant chase.

I'm standing tall, though my heart feels heavy,
In a world that's supposed to be loving and steady.
But I won't let their rejection define my worth,
I'll find my own family, a place of love and mirth.

To all those who've faced this pain,
Know you're not alone, you're not to blame.
We'll build a community, a chosen family,
Where love and acceptance will set us free.

I'm standing tall, though my heart feels heavy,
In a world that's supposed to be loving and steady.
But I won't let their rejection define my worth,
I'll find my own family, a place of love and mirth.

So I'll keep fighting, for love and equality,
For a world where acceptance is our reality.
And though my family may not understand,
I'll find solace in the arms of those who can.
