I wish we were born with Lavender Skin
Then there would be no explaining to our family and friends
We wouldn't waste our time on those people who aren't our kind
We wouldn't have the shame that some of us do now
There would be no explanating on who, what, when or how
There would be no blame on them and where did they go wrong
This is something I have thought about far to long
If we were born with Lavender skin
We would have the same rights as our straight friends
We could be married, have children free from their judgment of our sins
If we only had Lavender Skin
We could walk hand and hand anywhere we choose
We wouldn't have to hide and pretend
Things could be so much better
If we only had Lavender Skin
Maybe the girls would look like girls and the men like men
I know there would be more acceptance
If we only had Lavender Skin
Others would not have have their lives ruined by hatred and bigotry
Maybe we wouldn't have lost as many of our friends and family
Why oh why ; were we not born with Lavender Skin
