This is for the boys who love boys

for the girls who love girls

this is for the parent who loves their child regardless

for the friend, teacher brother, sister who won't tolerate bigotry

this is for the death of the word "faggot"

this is for the person sitting next to you

I LOVE YOU

to the dreamers for their fight to live alive the life

to stand and hold the hands of the kids with

"Blue Citrus Hearts"

I don't think any rational person could argue against the sentiment of it tho :)

4. Teenagers can't fall in love?
If anyone here has a problem with the term "Boys", "girls", they are free to use the alert button. In context though the only people I see having a problem with this thread are all running for the republican presidential nomination.
