Ok so it's official
I like you a lot
But should that label me in such a a way where I can't still be myself?

I choose to like you
The person that you are
Regardless of skin, gender, or preference at all

I'm not ready to raise the rainbow flag for one person
Should I really have to?
Can I keep to my self
And like who I want
Without anyone asking me to pick where I belong

When I'm with you I'm happy,
A flapping in my stomach
My heart in my throat
That makes me question everything I know

If in the end, I end up with you
I know I'd be happy endlessly
And everyone else
Would have to learn to be
