Call Me Ace


"Anormal", "Wrong", "Needs To Be Fixed", "Queer!"

That's but a small bit of the everyday soundtack that I hear.

"No, I don't want a Kiss.", "I'm not broken.",  "Please don't touch me there!"

I repeat daily while inside I am cowering in fear.

"Don't stand that close!" "Eww, she's sick!" "Who let that in here!"

I won't hurt you! I'm Asexual, not a grizzly bear.

My sexuality is real and I don't need to be  'fixed'. So please don't sneer.

I don't harm you so why should you even care?
