Oh to Be Queer
June 7, 2023
Questioning your identity surely can’t be fun…
Uprooting your whole life by being who you are?
Evenings spent crying, wishing you could change
Erasing all the things that didn’t make you “same”
Revealing who you are, only to be shunned.

It was a struggle to come to terms with who I am because I knew how hard it would be to tell my family...which I still have yet to do. This poem is me looking at my identity from the outside in.
