Maybe I can’t stop the downpour,
but I will always, always join you for a walk in the rain.
—Albert Camus.
All through life
you must stand up to this strife.
Doesn’t matter that you are different
just remember to make yourself a commitment.
I won’t let them condemn
because I don’t listen to them.
I am me
and in this knowledge I will remain free to be!
