In The Closet

November 11, 2020

Hidden away I am.

For if I came out,

I'd open the dam.

Would you feel glee and dance about?

Or deny and slay me for finding myself?

Amongst the public I fear for my safety.

But with my kind, I become my true self.

I hope that you will sitll love me.

And one day, I might come out from hidding.

But today is not the day.
