Mother - xxcrashgirlxx by #dapride:icondapride:



You made me in an act of love.
You had me,
saw me,
swore to raise me.
Brought me up,
your little girl,
swore you'd love no matter what.
Guess what, Mom.
I'm gay.
You love me, right?
What do you mean,
     no?
No, this isn't
     temporary.
No, I can't just like boys.
This is nothing
to be ashamed of.
What do you mean,
     yes it is?
It isn't.
I'm your daughter.
You love me, right?
What do you mean,
     no?
This is part of who I am.
Did you just tell me,
     "Change it?"

This was written from my girlfriend's point of view... Obviously, though, it could translate to so many cases of a disastrous coming-out. Switch 'boy' and 'girl' and you have the same story on the gay male side of the spectrum. As much as I hate to say it... it's just another example of the horrible homophobia that goes on every day to so, so many people.

Amazing poetry. My mother wasn't too happy about my pansexuality either. Every time I make an offhanded comment about a girl being gorgeous, she gives me this weird look... I dont even kno what's going thru her head. Eventually, one time she snapped at me and told me to stop saying things like that and after that, the snapping continued every time my tongue "slipped" because honestly, I made no attempt to hold anything back. I'm not ashamed of myself

I write for the same reasons I breathe and blink: it keeps me alive, and it's more than just a reflex.

This is a very good work. It's true, you can replace boy with girl and get the same results. I had the same problem with coming out to my family and fiancee.

Just don't let anyone deprive you of your self value and hinder your efforts. :)

Fabulous love!
When I told my mother I was bisexual she looked at me and said..."No you aren't!" I said okay, my girlfriend isn't either.
Its funny because she loves my gay friends.

Keep up the good writing. I will be watching you!

Honor all with whom we share the Earth:-
Four-leggeds, two-leggeds, winged ones,
Swimmers, crawlers, plant and rock people.
Walk in balance and beauty.
