Two WomenI
Two women at the altar stand,
Forever joined by heart and hand;
Two wives, from this day forth, become:
Two weddings folded into one.

II
A single child two mothers makes
Of these two women, and awakes
A blessedness so pure in each:
A love, that shall to heaven reach.

III
Two women, from this world, depart,
Each safe within the other's heart
Until, as angels eased into
Heaven, they fall in love anew.

Momma Said 'Stop Being Gay'Momma said "stop being gay,"
As night, to morning, faded;
Its beauty was not made to stay,
But hoary grew, and jaded.
I watched as day, with fractured light,
My every fear, rekindled,
And passion fell away to plight,
And hope but further dwindled.

Momma said "stop being gay,"
With hatred, and distress:
My tender love where sin held sway...
"Impure, and meaningless."
Within my heart and soul, I lived,
For all else had bereft me,
And nothing more could be perceived
Than how her words had left me.

Momma said "stop being gay."
For years, I never fought her,
But silently, and hopeless, lay,
The Lord's forgotten daughter.

Also known as, "I'm so sure it's just a phase."

Basically, an idea I've had for a while now... been putting it off because, at the time, I still hadn't come to terms with being genderqueer, and didn't want to do anything this... idk, public. But now I'm at peace with it all, I can laugh as I think back, and I think this is a pretty accurate description of my own coming-out process.

The pink thing can be whatever you imagine... an inner voice, destiny... my gay fairy godmother... all that matters is that it was always there. At first, I didn't notice (but it was still there), then, I didn't believe (because I just assumed I was straight), then... well, honestly, I overplayed the denial phase here... and then I started to realize I was, and then I was happy to realize, because finally things made sense and I felt free.

...Happy holidays, everyone!

Hey this is me! Just instead of 'gay' it was 'Asexual', then 'Pan-(demi)-romantic'...Then 'Genderqueer'. -_-

Fate must have so much fun screwing with my life. I bet she's laughing at me right now.

Yup. -_- Of course, I am perfectly fine with being a pan-demi-romantic asexual who is genderqueer but its still kinda annoying...¬_¬ It certainly doesn't make life easy.



(And that's without even mentioning my mental issues. Yep. I have mental issues.)
