Closeted
Disgusted in myself
With this disease
Creative words
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
Abused by this expectation
Of hetero –life
Not homosexual
Distant
From these secrets
Disturbed by the unusual
The unspeakable…
Suffocated
By… “God”
Self-conscious
By family
Closeted…
By faith…
Breaking free
But being held back
By the hate,
The anger,
The homophobia,
Arms around my chest…
Holding me back…
My mouth sewn shut…
The words will not escape my mouth
Closeted…
Is what the world…
Made me….
Closeted…
Is what you made me…
