#bi-sexual
I see you. And I hear them too. "You need to choose." "Well you must like one more than the other" "This is just a phase." "Oh, you're just confused." I see you. And I hear society. Today, society feels threatened by anything that does not fit a label. Especially if that label leads to more confusion than clarity. Dear Little Bi-Girl, you are not the problem. Gay - Men who like Men Lesbian - Women who like women Bi-Sexual - you like both? Dear Little Bi-Girl, they are confused by you. Bi-sexuality is what the "B" in LGBT stands for. Proving that you are recognized as "different" and it's okay. But yet you still feel the lack of respect associated with who you want to love. Little Bi-Girl, you remind society that there is a grey area in this black and white world. You are the blurred line. You are the example of half and half. You are the misunderstood. And I still see you. Not fully allowed to be a part of the straight world and not fully allowed to be a part of the gay world. You feel awkward in both. You don't fit in a box. Borderline hetero, borderline **** And I still see you. You like the softness of a woman, The ruggedness of a man, And society is not content with your opinion of your ****** orientation: "I just like people". Society is loud and drowns you out. "You need to choose." "Well you must like one more than the other" "This is just a phase." "Oh, you're just confused." But Little Bi-Girl, I see you. You can't choose. You don't like one more than the other. and It's not just a phase. You're not confused. Society is. Dear Little Bi-Girl, I hear you. I am you.

Dear Little Bi-Girl,
I see you. And I hear them too. "You need to choose." "Well you must like one more than the other" "This is just a phase." "Oh, you're just confused." I see you. And I hear society.
