QUICK NOTE: I'm not a gay rights activist. Please don't add me thinking I am. This is simply a video/poem INSPIRED from the movie. I wrote it from a perspective I don't think a lot of people saw. What I grasped from the movie was that Bobby was indeed a homosexual but he knew that was wrong, which caused a lot of guilt and also additional pressure from his overly-religious family. And those two things are what brought him to his final breaking point, in which he committed suicide.The way his story ended was tragic, and I believe that situations like this need to be handled very delicately. Just wanted to make that clear. Thanks for all the support!

A poem based on the movie "PRAYERS FOR BOBBY." ENJOY!!!

  • think good thoughts. I believe that Bobby is still by his loving mother's side every day in spirit. Bobby is also in heaven living in peace and in comfort with Jesus.

  • I did enjoy the poem, but I need to state that being homosexual, lesbian, bi, or trans is NOT WRONG!!! That is a religious mentality and I wish people would stop putting that bullshit on God. He has nothing to do with this severely wrong belief. When will all you misinformed idiots understand this?

  • Congratulations for this stunning poem which amazed me so much !!!

  • @SBizzLE18

    Thank you for this, it's lovely. I find that the poem and song gently

    forces Bobby into my thoughts(consciousness) after so much time

    has passed. For that, I am truly grateful!

    Sincerely,

    Blaine

  • The poem was wonderful! I cried reading it! I've read the poem many times! God bless the struggling gay bc the time will

    Come

    When the family accepts!

  • Watching this film really affected me. I had never heard of Bobby Griffith before. Such a terrible tragedy at least some good came out of it in the end

  • it was a tragedy wat happened...and i feel sorry that he wasn't accepted...
