Gays use the term homophobic to try to embarrass straight people.
Here is something that straight people should know.
It is not wrong to be homophobic as some people claim,
But it is wrong to be a homosexual or a lesbian.
I am so ashamed
Is it worth it to peel back my skin?
It is burning flesh beneath the skin. It is Rawness So vulnerable
I might die from exposure
Tears set in blood on a child's face,
A child betrayed by older men,
Dissolve with a blush of embarrassed shame,
As five long years of silence begin.
Confused hands tremble in a disoriented state,
If only time could rewind
I could take back the words
That made me look absurd
And utterly out of my mind
Excellent
Monster
Boy
Assesses
Random
Radioactive
Asphalt.
Serious
Salmonella
Eerily
Declassified.
To this acrostic, do not pay any mind,
I want to hide right now, and never come out. I want to cry a river, quietly. I don't know what to do, and I don't know what to say. I'm just sitting here, looking around and feeling alone, like a loser.
