To Those Who Are Cowardly
By Berry Fantastic
I hate that she hates that I’m different
But, Mother, we are not all the same
I’m not a coward or a follower
But I’m still a respectable person
I’m a person for gods’ sake!
Treat me like one, be humane
I’ve every right to my own opinion
Every right to freely express myself
I won’t be oppressed or controlled
I will not conform to the crowd
I hate that you can’t love me for who I am
Mother, you’re a coward and a follower

I'm pretty sure your mother loves, at least you have you...and it's pretty pathetic you call her "the coward", if you would set her down and tell her how you feel I'm pretty sure she would understand......quit feeling pity for yourself...

I thinks it maybe that moms is to afraid to expand her horizons. Our accept people for who they are. Maybe she is a coward. I've known mothers like that. But on the side of mother's, they do have the ability to love you no matter what so, I think that this is a very good piece, I think you need to keep up the good work. Shit will come round. Keep on your keepin' on.
