I had a dream last night: I had a wife And two children, Not a care in the world And it was beautiful.

To the young girl Sitting on the stairs Listening To her parents argue; Love is real. Trust me.

To the thirteen-year-old Who was scared to show her true self Because of what the world told her; You made the right choice, To be proud of yourself. Proud to let the flag fly. To the scared teen Who wondered how painful Death would be; I give the generic response:

Life gets better.

I can promise you that. I can promise a light At the end of the tunnel, An end to the pain.

And to the girl Who mourns the loss Of this fictional life; Dreams become reality, For those who wait.

One day you could have A wife And two kids. And it would be beautiful.
