#afraidofthefuture
sometimes I'm afraid no one will ever love me again truly, not because of who I am, or why I work or if I'm a good person or a bad one sometimes I question who could love me as someone with a nonconforming gender identity I'm afraid no one will ever love that part of me again

I exist
Looking over bustling roads Eager peddling along rivers Helping yourself to seconds Icarus falling with his sun Caring for the desert plants Imitating the love we hear Talking for hours on swingsets You are who you make yourself Are you okay with leaving? Singing with the sharks Amber's poofing curls Raya's needless laughter Another reason to be happy Together through new beginning Old scrooge is actually kind Good friends old stories Another memory to hold close Are you feeling alone? Neapolitan ice cream Episodes on Netflix Working late on a Tuesday Yawns passed around Oval text bubble messages Rush hour traffic Kissing under oak trees Chattering people Indescribable assurance Time on a ticking clock Your choices make you Are you ready? Downtown there’s a band Up and over the hills New places to explore Even more people to adore Driving along the coast Incredible architecture Nearly older than the country No matter the people Zero worries but billions more Are you afraid? Acclimating to fresh new Understanding and learning Coastlines coated in silver Keeping stories for family Living in a large small area Another day gone Northern rock climbing Days more, days more to come Am I doing this? Am I doing this?
