Let me tell you about my journey, my struggle, To find love and acceptance in a world so brittle, I fought against the odds, and rose above the fray, To find a love so true, in every single way.

It started with a spark, a glimmer of light, In a world so dark, where wrong often felt right, I had to learn to trust, to open up my heart, And let love in, to set my soul apart.

Through all the pain and all the tears, I stood my ground and faced my fears, For I knew that love was worthy and right, And I refused to give up without a fight.

And then I met him, my heart’s delight, The man who would stand by me, day and night, Together we faced the world’s disdain, And proved that love knows no bounds, nor stain.

We found strength in each other, and in love’s embrace, We built a home filled with kindness and grace, Where all are welcome, no matter who they be, For we believe in inclusive love, for all to see.

So let me tell you about my journey, my strife, To find love and acceptance, in a world so rife, With hate and fear, but I rose above, And found inclusive love, with my husband’s love.
