I am what I am: Take 2

I so want to be able to be me.
But how can me be me when me is not allowed?
Friends, family; gleaming with disapprove,
this notion in my head I should not have endowed.
Now look at the shame I on them exude
Two men sharing a bed, unbiblical, not natural,
even the animals know better than to engage in this wicket ritual.
It’s a sin, they say;
don’t look at him that way.
Someday you’ll come to your senses,
visions of family, Doberman and white picket fences
they imprint.
Implying happiness ever after in heterosexuality solely exists.
All my life has been devoted to the cause,
putting you first, that way no more because
in putting me last
I’ve become a part of the past.
Not now, memories forgotten,
aint even trying to retrieve them
Pointless life living
for reasons leaving my head shaking.
You are the only one getting recognition
I’m stagnating in this position,
not moving forward as I don’t dare,
looking in the mirror, in the eyes
of a coward I stare.

Good job here Ash...this flowed quite well, and was a good, honest write. As for the subject matter; don't let anyone decide your fate but yourself. People, whether relatives or not, should not impede your happiness. It's selfish and hurtful towards you. You deserve to be as happy as the next person. Nicely done.
