8 A Poem to My Friends

Samantha Furneaux (She/her)

Keywords: Queer, Ally, Safety


How do I let myself be happy

When I have to hide part of who I am

 

How do I let my loved ones know

That I envy the happiness, they have found

 

How do I let them know

That my own struggles are built around

 

How can I keep my secret

Who I am as a person
