Finding my sexuality (poetry slam)
She was everything I wanted to be
No wonder I questioned my sexuality
But to find she might be into me?
My heart couldn't help but skip a beat
I was set on being her everything
Four years I batted my eyes
And watched as she fell for others
As she let them between her thighs
As young people will do
I fell for others to
But she was always there in my heart
My feelings always true
Lover apon lover
Cracked and broke me down
Slowly I lost myself
Slowly I began to drown
But I still loved them
Just as I loved her
But how could I love both
And for that I was unsure
Finally one day
I got my chance
After so long in denial
She had given me a second glance
I showed her what I could do
And she fell before me
She fell FOR ME
But it wasn't what I hoped it would be
For once in so long
I found that I didn't want her
And finally my life
Wasn't such a blur
Because I wanted him
And only him
I wanted him so much
That my love for her actually grew dim
I realized that day
That it wasn't about what you were
It was about who you were
Yes finally I was sure
So many people
talk about what they like
But I found that I like whos not whats
I'm not straight I'm not "****"
I am who I am
And I'm everything I want to be
And she helped me realize that
She helped me find me
