So I'M... Gay Comments

Rating: 4.5

My name is Dan, and because of you,
I walk with my head down, ashamed to look people in the eye.
My name is Dan, and because of you,
I cannot be free to be who I am, and every time I have to lie.

PM won't let me comment other than this type of spineless no-comment!

Freudian slip? I meant PH, but since they kept saying I was trying to talk a bit too much and kept turning my comments down I felt as if Justin Trudeau or other such authoritarian mouthpiece and puppet of the Left was shuting me up.

Actually, it wouldn't surprise me either way, if the poem is or is not a joke. It would not be the first 'joke' poem on PH. I've written a few myself. : ) bri

1 – I am " straight" , though after 2 divorces (from a women) i 'thought': " maybe i should try men? " No, i don't think so. But send good wishes to LGBT as i would to those who are otherwise. And i'd try to treat people as they " should" be treated [[deserve to be treated? ]] no matter their preference in 'sexual partners'. I do NOT say to be " proud" , as my friend Paul Brookes said below.

Are you kidding me? It's someone else's fault that Dan is sad! I get that you're gay, Dan (you've made that abundantly clear) , but at least be a man about it, and quit trying to blame me for your unhappiness. This poem is embarrassing to read, and the comments are embarrassing too. You all shouldn't be encouraging Dan's crybaby complaining- you're just enabling him. Dan, hopefully you're still young and can buck-up and take responsibility for yourself, act like a man (a gay man) - someone we can all be inspired by and not feel pity for.

Tim, I don't know what Dan has experienced in his life, but I'd not be a bit surprised if Dan, like I'm sure many (not all) 'LGBT-etc.' people have, has suffered 'through no fault of his own', if it is a fault of ANYONE, for how he feels about his sexual preference. : (

'Right on! ' for your comment, but I'M SURE that, like 'not-gay' people, NOT ALL ARE 'courageous and friendly'! ! !

AMEN! So perfectly said... Dan, I hope that you take this one and publish it everywhere humanly possible. This one could really make a difference in someone's life, and maybe even give someone the hope they need to go on! Three loud cheers from across the pond! ! !

Hello, Dan... I admire your poems.... and I admire you. Your poem speaks volumes. I'm glad you have found happiness and a sense of belonging in just being YOU. May we all find ourselves and live our lives being our true selves. Society doesn't always make that easy... as you have described so well in this poem. I give it a great big 10.

A person is a person no matter what style they choose. It does not mean they do not have a heart.Who are we to judge, I know of only ONE who had the right to judge.

Courageous and powerful poem, Dan. If people spent more time trying to make the world a better place for us ALL to live, instead of obsessing with what each other is doing in the bedroom, then things would be a lot better on this earth. You write beautiful poems and have every right to live, love, and be happy.

Well written Dan. You tell the homaphobic narrow minds. Being Gay is just being in my book. I have three son's and I swear to god, it would not bother me one tiny bit if any of them declared their Gayness. Be proud of who you are and remember, No ones opinion of you matters more than yours. A great poem on the freedom of sexual preference. It makes me sick all the Gay guys are so damned good looking though! lol Grinning at you, Tai
