hi guys


so i talked to this guy in my english class today

a guy? i know right,

time to start my college au

i liked the rings he was wearing,

but i was too scared 

to say anything

because that wouldn't be very gay, would it

i look straight enough going to dinner with my roommate,

i'd best not exacerbate it

i'm that quiet asian girl again, 

i'm no activist, my hair isn't even dyed rainbow colors

if i told her would she even believe me

or would i become one with the tar she scraped off her shoes last weekend
