Before you start reading this. I would like to give a shout out to 🌖🧚🪻Oddity✨🐜🥀for suggesting I write a poem on this topic. If you haven’t followed her go do that, she is amazing and litteraly such a talented poet.

I know to you

I seem like the default

A happy

Straight

Girl

But you don’t know what goes on in my head

What takes up so much space in my heart

What I spend countless hours pondering

And How it makes me feel

You don’t know

I’m queer

cause i hide it

from you

But I’ll give you

The beifit of the doubt

Because I

Didn’t always know either

I knew

I was different

I always knew that

It was a matter of fact

But for the longest while

I was in a deep

Painful denial

Can’t you see this

In your own child

Is it a compulsion

Is it a reflex

Is is a mechanism to cope

All I see is a man and a woman

A girl and a boy

No one like me

Don’t you see?

Men are gross

But that is normal right?

Girls are pretty

But its admiration

Not attraction right?

The truth us

I don’t know who I am

And it hurts

That something so seemingly small

Takes up so much space in my heart
