POEM STARTER
Write a poem titled “You Never Asked, But…”
Unsaid sentiments may be a prominent theme in this poem.
You Never Asked, But…
(I am a straight ally, I swear *proceeds to write some of the queer-est shit ever*. Hope you have a wonderful day!)
You never
Asked,
But then again I
Don’t know
Why I care
So damn
Much
Because I know
I wouldn’t have
Even answered,
At least,
Not truthfully.
I would have
Said I had
A crush on
Him
And never would
I have confessed
I had a crush on
Her.
I know you’d
Support me,
But what if
I don’t support
Myself?
I mean I’ve liked
So many guys
In the past
And
Like I probably
Just liked her
Platonically,
Nothing more,
Nothing less.
She was just a
Friend,
Right?
