Who I Am!
Location
Who am I?
I'm a Dyke.
I don't label me
You label me.
My buzzed hair,
My masculine clothes.
Sometimes
I feel apart from.
An outside looking in
Wishing I looked like you.
People sometimes stare
My heart sinks
I feel sadness creep in
I cry out inside
Why do I have to be different?
Why?
Why?
Why...
But...
Why do you care?
Your not a dyke
You don't have buzzed hair
You don't wear masculine clothes
You don't have to live like me.
You see a "Dyke"
But who am I really?
I AM COURAGEOUS
I AM RESILIANT
I AM STRONG
I am not a Dyke...
I am a proud...
Gay...
Woman!
