My Identity (poem)

“My Identity”

Why does it have to be
As if my identity is
Some kind of nuclear property?
Like if someone knows
Then I’ll be found out;
Criticize
As if I’m unstable,
Abnormal
For who I am is
Not accepted
By those I know & love
For once I’m found out
I’m cast out
It’s not like I ever judged you
For being you
So why should you be
Judging me?
For who I am & what I am
Is still the same it use to be
I’m just showing you another
Side to my identity
‘cause all along it was barely me
For what you saw was only part of me
Partially killing me
‘cause I was too afraid to
State my true identity
But here I stand & wait
For the moment
Where it doesn’t matter
If your gay or straight
Where I can live
Out my identity
With a certainty
That I’ll be judge equally
"Live everyday as a new day"
