Day 11: A song that makes you cry

Not because it is a sad song, but because at a very low point in my life, I heard this song and drew strength from it. It was what I needed to hear that day. I often cry when I hear it now as all those emotions come flooding back.

Day 11: A song that makes you cry

I wouldn't say this makes me cry but it certainly tugs at the heart strings.

While I am not anyone's son, I was certainly seen as such in my early life. This song recalls a lot of those emotions and the trauma that lives deep in my bones still. But it also hits on a future that has just recently become available to me, a path I've taken my first steps on towards possible reconciliation.

All I can say is that while I would have loved things in my life to have gone differently, I wouldn't change any of my decisions. And I'm glad I stayed true to myself, and kept "kissing boys in the streets" despite it all.

And I broke the rules because these equally make me weepy and I am a gentle soul, so if you’re making me cry by posting these, then I’m posting both.

:p
