Trying to be Me

Don't call me an abomination .
Don't tell me I don't belong .
Don't tell me that I'm worthless
or that I live my life all wrong .
Don't judge me for who you
think I am or tell me who I
should be .
I'm just trying to live my life ,
I'm just trying to be me.
 
  I didn't wake up one morning choosing this
path that I'm on now , I wouldn't have chosen
a path with all the ridicule and hate that I
now face .This is the way I was born , I'm happy
with who I am - why can't you love me for who
I am , instead of hating me for who I'll always be .
  The choice was made for me before I was even born ,
but yet you still blame me for nothing I've done
wrong .
  I love who I love why is that so wrong I will not
apologize , for there is nothing to be sorry for  -
despite what you may believe .
  So don't tell me that I'm wrong or that I don't
belong , I'm the same as everyone else , I'm just
trying to be me .
