Shoved Out The Closet

Falling down a path that only seemed to get darker with time 

My Hero, my mentor, my father was changed 

And so was I 

Finding comfort in similarilites 

I rushed and attached myself to her like Koala

I knew it was wrong but it felt so ok...

Okay, I didn't think he would find out 

Never thought it would be me

Tom Boy, Lesbian, Gay, Queer, Butch, Dyke

"Don't be Vulgar" 

"These words are Vulgar" 

Feelings that never disappear, only getting stronger

Crystal clear. I am no longer a little girl 

Confronation is amongst us

Talking is the answer or is it?

Not coming out is hard

Want to tell my him but how

Not a child, not a baby, not a butch

Just His child.
