He Is Gay

He walks in Pink flip-flops. You can call them sandals. He wore Tight tank tops. You can all it a "muscle shirt." He sings Beyonce songs. You can call it ... weird. He dances to "YMCA." You can call it ... weird too. He watches "Love" movies. You can call them "chick flicks." You can also call that ... definitely weird. He Loves to love his girlfriend? You can call it ... different. But he is Just happy. He is not 'undercover' On the 'down low' In the "closet" Or bisexual. He is a rare gem: A man A boy A male Who escaped societies beliefs. He did not follow what "they" said was manly. He found hope in himself Discovered happiness in his choices. So now They call him ... joyful. Because He Is Gay. Devin T.
