Hurt

Your actions speak a thousand words,
They tear my soul apart,
And adding salt into the wound,
Your words they pierce my heart.

I sit alone as darkness falls,
My world a crumbling mess,
I didn't know that being me,
Would mean you'd love me less.

I see the look that's in your eyes,
Disgust for all to see,
Anger, disappointment, hate,
All directed at me.

I don't know how to make it right,
Mum tell me it's okay,
Don't worry because I know you can't,
Perhaps another day.

I cannot make you change your mind,
But I hope in time you'll see,
That I am still your little boy,
No matter who I choose to be.
