WHO AM I?
When I was growing up I used to be one of those kids
Who said “thats so gay” to something funny-
I had trouble finding my real identity
Until the tenth grade
I was behind closed doors
I am gay
Who am I?
Im a Gay highschool senior
Who got bullied
Who got called “f*ggot”
When I first came out-
Why did I wait so long
When I first came out it was scary
I knew from a young age I liked both
I was young
I was unsure about my identity
But I came out when I did
I wasn't scared
Wasn't a confused kid anymore
I know what I want
And who I am
This is me
Be proud of who you are
Be proud of what who’ve become
Be proud of what you’ll become
You are you
You are beautiful
You are perfectly imperfect
Accept yourself as yourself
You… are…you
