Nov 2017
Into the mirror I whisper
Grinning with the joy I sing  
The quiet reassurance
That nothing else can bring.

I grin because today
I look the part I play
I could pass as queer, I think
Just passably "a gay".

I smile and straighten my shoulders
(The only thing that's straight)
I let myself relax and smile
I think I was worth the wait.
Idk man I looked at myself and thought "wow if I were making generalizations and saw myself in the street, I'd be getting a whole lotta gay vibes off of me" and this happened.
