I Am Gay
I was only young when I knew I was gay
I had been married twice but it didn’t go away
I didn’t get the chance until I got to this stage
I had to wait until I’d reached this ripe old age
I had the feelings but nothing could be
I was married with children then you see
A lot has happened in my life its true
But how would you have felt if it had been you?
I know in the early days I would have been gay
But circumstances happened to get in the way
I had a baby when young, so that was that
I had made my bed and had to lay in that
It didn’t work out my first marriage its true
He used to knock me about till I was black and blue
My children I am proud of I love them all so
After ten years I let my first husband go
I met another man he was really good to me
It restored my faith in men if that could be
He was my salvation but sadly he died
I then grieved for him that I could not hide
I cried and grieved for a very long while
I carried on my life and forced a smile
I dated a man but I should have seen
I had to go back now to how it should have been
I am in love and married to my gay spouse
We live together in a lovely homely house
In a lovely little village in the countryside
I no longer have a secret that I have to hide
