Faggot: An Acrostic Poem

Fear of being found

Always hiding

Going crazy from keeping the secret inside

Getting sick of the lies

Ostracized for something I never chose to be

Tired of the closet, time to be free

    You've touched a hard subject and I think you did it well. Sometimes I feel like this myself and im not gay just really open and sometimes I feel like that is looked upon as bad, but i don't care what people think and i can't be afraid of not being accepted. Maybe thats why I don't have many friends, but who wants a lot of friends if they have to hide who they are or how they feel about something right?!? Anyway great message i wish I could be free completely that would be wonderful. Oh by the way thanks for the comment you left me on my poem "not the cure" it was much appreciated.

    Keep the open mind, its honorable.

    OMG! FInally, someone wrote about this topic. I thank you so much, this is beautiful, short... yet beautiful. There are so many idiots that hate gay/lesbian/bi-sexual people, before they even see or speka to the person. Im really really happy you wrote this, I'll make sure to show this to my brother, and most of my friends... and share it with alot more people, so maybe they can come out of the closet, and see it the way you and few other do. Anyways, I love this! I would definitly say, enter it in something or anything, because it might get you somewhere! Thanks and lovely work.

    really good and politically correct

    Thats really true.With gays and bi's,they are forever being tormented for being themselves.Grabbing title.But in these new times,people are a little more willing to bend.I think everyone in the world should be classified as bisexuall.Then,no matter what,you can't be different.It was a good poem.
