In this place, there is no time
For you and all to understand
I will write within the confines
Of the concept you call time
I am strong and free of the pain
That brought me where I am today
I have much to share with you
What it is I want to say
Love your children no matter what
Where I am, I have seen
Shattered souls. broken bodies
Of the kids you did not save
After they leave and you are alone
Their pain doesn’t stop in time you know
Healing here has no time
It’s hard to explain not having time
If you think your children are troubled
Know for sure that they are
Reach out and let them know
Your love is there no matter what
There are many who are gay
Much too scared to tell you so
They hear you say queers are bad
And their friends say the same
In their silence, they are suffering
In the night, listen close
You will hear their troubled dreams
Their tears are words shouting their pain
What they fear most of all
You will hate them if you find
Their secret hidden deep inside
Tears and fears and a spirit broken
Now the worst falls on them
Darkness of depression
Swallows them whole
More than ever your child will need
Only a parent can provide
Give your love and do not judge
Many are scared you will lock them out
From their family and your heart
Let them know they have a home
Where they’re safe and not alone
Now you have so little time
To save your daughter or your son
You must reach and hold them tight
One more time, give the Gift of Life
