I Am
I am strong and delicate,
I wonder if he whispers lullabies through the wind in angel
language telling me to stop crying,
I hear the symphony of kind and genuine words,
I see with my eyes, but look with my heart,
I want to go back in this sad story and leave a happy
ending to the last part,
I am strong and delicate.
I pretend that roses don’t have spines and that clouds don’t cry,
I feel soft & rough hands leave marks in my hearts insides.
I touch grieve with silk mittens,
I worry my life will come out exactly the way I plan,
I cry to the slightest touch of death
I am strong and delicate.
I understand that there are few things that simply arent meant to let go,
I say I need a hug,
I dream I’ll be strong enough to show my real self one day,
I try to be mysterious like fog,
I hope day the world will know the true meaning of tolerance
so we can stop the threats,
I am strong and delicate.
I wrote this for English class last week. It took me hours, I feel so much conflict with what I am and what Im not. I feel so much conflict with trying to be deeply genuine when I write for teachers that are most probably homofobic, when my sexuality is such a big part of me. It sickens me.
