Does it Matter?




           My folks asked if i was gay
           I asked does it matter?
           I said Yes
           They said No, not really
           I said Yes
           They said get out of out lives
           I guess it mattered


           My boss asked if i am gay
           I asked does it matter?
           My boss said no, not really
           I said yes
           My boss said you're fired homo
           I guess it mattered


           My friends asked it f was gay
           I asked does it matter?
           They said no, not really
           I said yes
           they said dont call us your friends
           I guess it mattered


           My lover asked do you love me?
           my lover said yes
           I said I Love You
           MY lover said let me hold you in my arms
           For the first time in my life something matters


           My creator asked me do you love yourself?
           I asked does it matter?
           MY creator said YES
           I said how can I love myself? I am gay
           MY creator said that is the way I made you
           Nothig will ever matter again
