LGBT DAIRIES
If anyone has a story to tell whether it be an actual story or in poetry form I will put your story up that you have for me and if you want it to anonymous than your name will not be attached to the story. In order to make this site a success I need people to participate; its time to actually do something instead of nothing.
Entry Number 1
THE BOY'S TEENAGE MASK
There’s a story about
A teenage boy, who
Lived his life in
Fear so he lived
Behind his thick mask.
A teenage boy has
Just turned into a teen;
The teenage boy now
haves thoughts that
Something is wrong
With him “ I must be
Sick” - the boy said.
The boy then becomes disgusted
With himself as he says “ I
Can’t live this way, no way can
I be like this, I have to
Stop my deviant feelings or
Else I should not live.”
A year goes bye; he is
Now sixteen. The teen
Is now depressed because
He has no control over what
Is known to him as deviant
Feelings and thoughts.
“ I can’t take this anymore;
Everyday I cry out to God
To save me from my deviant feelings,
but I receive no help” - the boy said.
Two years goes bye, he is
Now eighteen. The teen
Is now in a mental facility
Questioning his faith in God and
Is now coming to terms with who he
Truly is behind the mask he
Has worn for so long that has become
Thick like layers of packed make-up
On someone’s face.
“ There is no way Christianity can be
The only way of life for me,
But this way of life that I have been
Studying which is the Buddhist way
Of life seems like it fits me as it
Does not condemn me” - the boy said.
“ I am who I am and
I know who I am supposed
To be and what I am supposed
To be. How can it be my choice
If I am born into the way I think
And feel? The answer is it can’t
Be a choice of mine and I am
Tired of living behind
This thick mask of lies, hate,
And fear; this mask is not for me
Anymore” - the boy said.
A year goes bye he
Is now nineteen and
Feeling way more
Comfortable with his
New way of life and
Religion.
“I am going to live without
My mask or not live at all;
You may condemn me, but
Your way of life is not my way of
Life and in my way of life as a Buddhist
I am not condemned” - the boy said.
As he begins to hang with
Friends they ask “ why are
You so happy all the time?”
The boy replies “I am happy
Because I choose not to live
Behind my old thick mask
From long ago.”

Entry Number 2
Easy Or Not
You say that being
Gay is easy.
Well I’m here to
Tell you that being
Gay is actually
One of the hardest
Things to do.
You say gays have
A choice to be gay
Or straight and we
Just choose to be gay.
I’m here to tell you
If you think that
Then you are insane.
Why would anyone
Want to be gay; gays
Can’t marry in most states,
Gays also are bullied and
Tortured just for being who
They truly are.
We are beaten, killed
Hanged, abused, harassed
In every way in schools, but
Yet we choose to be gay?
Hmm… I think not.
Churches protest and
Say “ God Hates Fags.”
Or “ Gays are doomed
To hell for all eternity.”
Or even my favorite “
Thank God For AIDS.”
If God believed all
Those things then
Why does it say that
Man are created equal.
So I ask you the
Question what makes
You think being gay
Is easier than being
Straight?

Treated Unfairly
You say we are
A free country in the
United States.
Why is it gays
Are not allowed
To marry in all states?
You say we are treated
Equal, have no fear
We will always treat
You the same.
Why is it that gays
Are treated as if they
Should be caged and
Locked away from society?
Why is it gays are
Treated like second
Class citizens?
You Say church is
Separated from state.
Why is it, much of
Laws made against LGBT
Members are church
Driven?
You want every one in
The United States to live a
Full life.
How can LGBT members
Live a full life when
Are hands are bound by
The laws that criticize
LGBT members.
Treated unfairly is what still
Outlines most LGBT members.

Entry 4
Your Acceptance Alone
There was this
Teenage boy named
James, who was struggling
With something. He liked
This boy named Achim who
Was also struggling with something.
His acceptance of being gay.
James happened to be walking
And saw Achim mentally
Hurt and ashamed of something.
Achim sat on the bench
Crying even after he had
No more tears left to spare.
James sat down and
Made him feel better;
James decides to try and flick
Achim’s Hair.
Achim said to James, “
Dude! Im straight do you
Really think I am gay.”
James said “ Hey; it does
Not matter what I think
Or anyone else, it matters
What you think only.”
Achim and James stare into
Each other’s eyes for at least
A minute, enough to find
Out everything they need to
Know about each other.
Afterward James decides
To take another chance and
Trys to flick Achim’s hair
Again.
Achim grabs James’s hand
And puts James’s hand back in
His lap. Then Achim says to
James: “ I like you James.”
And Achim lifts his hand
And flicks James’s hair.
Part II
The point of that story
Is to show that no one owns
Your thoughts and feelings
But you.
It does not matter if the world
Thinks your gay or straight.
So don’t worry about anyone,
Because you are the only person
That has to accept you being gay,
You’re the only one who has to
Accept who you truly are inside.
I leave you with a quote:
“ When everyone starts accepting
Who they truly are, the world will
Become better for millions” - Adrian Oliver

Freedom Or No Freedom
What has everything come
To today?
Why are we on this ball
Of dirt that was named
Earth?
Why was it named earth
When it should have been
Named Mad Earth?
Why are some things not
Socially accepted to speak
About?
Why do people feel sometimes
They are going through life as
If they are unnoticed?
I look at the clouds and they move
Around so freely in their world
Of clouds in the atmosphere.
I think to myself why can’t are social
World be like that, more accepting,
More forgiving?
I don’t know why, but if you really
Look at the world it becomes the
Look of a mad world.
Why is it that sometimes people
Aren’t paid more attention so they
Don’t commit suicide while depressed?
On the other hand what really makes
People commit suicide?
I look at the clouds again and I
See peace and calm, but when
I look at the world, the world is
A mad world.
I leave with a quote
“ when the spinning mad
World can become the
Peace and calm of the clouds,
The world can demote themselves
From a mad world.” - Adrian Oliver

Entry 6
S.N.M
As I watch the
People of the world,
The United States,
My state, my city,
My neighborhood,
And my school I see
Many things.
Some of the things I see
Upsets me a lot.
As I continue to watch
I see that some things that
Should be ok and is ok in
The gay society is far from
Ok in the straight society.
Having a “gay talk” in a
Straight community even
If it is around people who don’t
Mind gays is still taboo and is
Treated as if it is a virus.
When a guy talks about a girl
It is ok because it is the “norm”,
But… when a guy talks about
Another guy in the same form
It is automatically taboo and should
Not be talked about even if it is not “bad”
Instead the gays are silenced most of the
Time from being there true-self.
Who has the right to
Decide to silence gays
From expressing and showing
Who they are?
The Answer: No One
Who has the right to decide
What is “ normal”?
The Answer: No One
No one should be
Silenced just because
They deviate from the
“ Norm” of society.
I leave you with a quote:
“ Never let yourself be
Silenced, because the
Moment you do they
Gain control over you.”

Entry 7
Whirlwind
The story begins with
A boy who loves to
Bully gays.
The boy’s name is
Nick and his ‘nitch
For bullying gays is
Calling them a
Faggot.
Nick always bullies
This other guy who is
Gay, named Terrance.
In a three day time
Frame Terrance
Grows tired and
Can’t take the hate
Anymore.
Day one: “ Hey faggot
What are you doing?
Raping guys with your
Eyes, you stupid faggot.
You better not check me
Out or I will kick your faggot
Ass” said Nick.
“ Why do you have to call
Me a faggot all the time.
Dude it really hurts when you
Call me that” said Terrance.
(Terrance has tears pouring
Down his face.)
“ Fuck you faggot; I will
Beat your faggot ass.
You’re a faggot; you chose
That lifestyle, so you made
Yourself a faggot” said Nick.
Day two: “ Hey faggot what are
You doing?” said Nick.
( Nick pushes Terrance into the
Locker and then trips him.)
“ Dude!!! Can you please just
Stop, leave me alone please”
Terrance said.
“ You chose that lifestyle this
Is what you get and deserve for
Picking such a sinful lifestyle”
Said Nick.
Day three: Nick runs after
Terrance and punches him in the
Face four times and says “ you like
That faggot.”
Terrance runs out of the school
And runs home.
Terrance then finds a blade and
A gun and says “ I can’t take this
Anymore, there is no other way
out.”
Terrance makes a large incision
On his wrist; as he bleeds he says
“ not fast enough.”
Terrance then puts the gun to his
Head and says “ boom” and then
Pulls the trigger.
Everything goes dark; its all over,
Its all over, Goodbye youth.
Part II
The story shows the horrible things
People do to gays and how detrimental
The word “faggot” can be to gays.
When you say the word faggot to
A gay person and you call him a faggot,
That is the same as calling someone
Who is black a negro except with the
“ER” at the end.
I leave you with a quote:
“ When hate words get wiped
Off the Earth, life will be more
Plentiful.” - Adrian Oliver
