OUR DEATH HAS NOT BEEN IN VAIN

Someone thought they would hurt our world if they shot us up
They shot us but they could not shut us up
Someone chose our location because we were gay
Now, gay or straight, the world has united to keep hate at bay
An action fuelled by hate and now we are the late
Though he made us late, we’ve become love’s bait
Homophobia has been dealt a huge blow because we died
Now through our death, the value of diversity is now on the rise
Religious folk now have to face the truth about the love they profess
“We have much work to do in the area of inclusion” they confess
‘Love not Hate’ is now the chant over mountains and plains

For indeed our death has not been in vain
