You said I would never be alone
How do I heal without my Christian church brothers and sisters?
You said I would never be alone.
You welcomed me into your church then you found out I belonged to the LGBTQ community—you put a label on me—then you became divided… you still welcome me but I know who you are, those who no longer accept me. I see it in your face with no smile. God bless you anyway.
