Broken-Heart Bisexuality
is ebony tears falling with my phone
Something is different
and I thought nothing was wrong
until I was told that
nothing is wrong
with me
I have two choices
hang up or fall apart
This was supposed to be fun
and with her it is
with her I felt the lightest
as I held her hand
and could feel her watching
but couldn’t watch back
I knew if I saw her eyes
my own would crystallize
as I thought about leaving
and wished I’d spend the final night
sitting in her bed
like I used to
and how she said she’d never kissed
the moment I thought about it
with my tear-drenched lips
that she didn’t deserve
I was silent
I am sorry
I don’t know me
but I know her
and the way she quickened my heart
as my lungs were recovering
from her cutting my breath
and how she’d ask why I’m staring
It’s only because whenever I saw her
I thought all these things over again

This piece is no secret; it's for Elena: the only girl to make me question my sexuality. She already read this, but it's something I'm proud of in the fact that I was courageous enough to write it. She knows I miss her a bunch! As for other readers, I hope some people are able to relate or appreciate the personal anecdotes included, because the time frame mostly focuses on my time at Interlochen. If not, I hope they at least like the emotion within this. Je t'aime!
