Coming Out

Summary:

I came out 2 days ago and I’m filled with so many emotions that I can’t explain it with a word

Notes:

Both a story and a poem

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

Staying silent isn’t easy

Saying something is hard 

Confessing is deplorable 

It makes me feel sleazy

Stab me with a glass shard

Love is not always adorable

 

Sitting in the car

Ready to say something 

Stomach ready to spill

Mouth filled with tar

I kept going, I kept pushing 

Whole world stood still

 

I didn’t know what to expect

I ran for years like a suspect 

I planned, but I still dreaded

This day might get me beheaded

I spoke and fumbled my speech

Burn my brain on a beach

 

Keeping them silent isn’t easy

Saying nothing is difficult

Confessing is still deplorable 

It makes me feel dizzy

Take my heart and catapult 

Loving the same is horrible 

 

Notes:

I hope everyone can have a good ending or a better one if it started off bad
