Why can't they see?

Gays and lesbians,
Have no rights.
I love you,
With all my might.

You're a girl,
And so am I.
I miss you,
But I'll see you tonight.

I can't tell anyone,
About us two.
I wish they would understand,
And except us as two.

I love you,
And you love me.
Why can't they see,
That happiness is all we need?

When I see you,
My heart fills with hope.
That maybe someday,
People will be able to cope.
