blossom

flowers bloom at night

and their love blossoms

why does wrong feel so right

and young love always have to die?

“kiss me in the dark

til deaths do us part”

cross our hearts and swear

I will always be there

two backpacks and an affair

let’s run away together

if all the gays ended up in hell

then that’s where we’d be forever

you were 16 and I was too

hold my hand and count

one

two..

This is dedicated to a recent tragic news where two young girls ran from home and ended their lives together. Their parents could have looked for them. They could have been found before they decided to jump. But in the end, the victims were blamed, for their sexuality even after their deaths.

If you need help or someone to talk to, please contact the suicide hotline right away. It is always hard to be different. But there are people who will understand and accept you for who you are. Just reach out your hands and call for help. You are not alone. We are much stronger together.
