Out

Out

Anonymous

I am in the wrong place in the wrong time

Struggling to find peace of mind

Because I do not find comfort in labels

Where others find safety

I waiver, stumbling out of place

I’ve learned to hide my face

Keep your eyes down and hopes up

Because they can tell you you are made wrong,

They sing a narrow minded song

Because God made Adam and Eve

But God also made me,

and my heart may love different

But just like you I bleed

And I hold my breath,

scared of being discovered

Under this false pretense

Of societal normality I am under

The school hallways become a war zone

That I feel the need to take cover

My heart beats to a different song

but in the end it end with the words

“We all belong”

I am not out,

I am stopped by doubt,

They fear of what will happen

If I dare to say I go another way,

Because I see the soul before the body

Mind before figure,

If I tell, will I be put on the ugly end of someone else’s trigger?

There is so much hatred surrounding love

on the fear of something disapproving from above

But at the end of the day I know

That you and I love and live the same way.
