ENOUGH


How many roads must I walk

before I am me?

What must I do? How must I be?


Am I acceptable

when I walk out the door,

or will I feel you judging me

like you’ve done before?


By whose authority

must I be a certain way?

Why can’t I be happy? Why can’t I be gay?


Does anyone out there know what I’m trying to say?

I am enough.

There’s no other price to pay.

Bree, Lovely poem! I can truly relate! it’s as if sexuality is the only thing that’s condemning us to hell, if we could

just chose our sexuality. if it helps at all, in those darker moments just remind yourself, did straight people chose they’re they’re attraction to the opposite sex? No, it just happens. theirs nothing wrong with us. I find myself spelling out similar poetry living in a small town

Dear Bree,


A beautiful, very resonant poem. I read this a few days ago and it has stayed with me.
