I have something to tell you........

I never knew the real you
In a paradox you were man enough to
Expose what you had hidden inside
Without remorse regret just pride

I've always admired the way you are
Independent strong an unique by far
So it didn't surprise me when u let on
Your s*xual preference was intensely strong

I can accept the fact thats how you are
As long as your happy you carry no scar
I don't want to sound this out wrong
Its something that will take long

For me to accept an appreciate
Is something that i have trouble to relate
But you are my flesh an blood boy
An i will stand by you....not coy

Our life is but a blink of the eye
To live it truly before we die
Is something that we all must achieve
Enjoying happiness ....is to succeed

WoW!!! I don't know that I could muster up the same amount of grace as what your poem reveals about your attitude of your son's confession about loving another man. Being the Bible believing Christian that I am, I've learned to love the sinner but I'm NOT supposed to embrace their sin. This would be a real test of a father's love for his child. I do not envy the circumstances behind this difficult poem!! You're an AMAZING man is all I can say!! handshake
