Guilty
We excuse people for their crimes and flaws
Bad times and deeds we forget and forgive
The choices one makes may cause broken laws
And thoughts of guilt are what they must live with
Ones with a different sexuality
Lesbian, gay, bi and transgender too
Did not choose to live differently
Yet they are blamed for crimes they didn’t do
Sexuality is not a choice
LGBT or straight we’re all the same
Don’t silence all the different types of voice
Embrace how we all feel love, joy and pain
The separation between those with different thoughts
Must end by seeing who is guilty and who’s not.
