Beauty, Love, and Fear

Dear anyone,

Today I saw the most beautiful girl. And I don't meanin the way I look at some girls in jealousy- I mean that I wished I could kiss her.

I wish that I could kiss a girl like her, and that scares me. She was reading  what looked like a really good book, and her blue eyes glimmered in the light, and dark hair fell perfectly on her slim shoulders- and I was afraid of how she made me feel.

I'm afraid because of who I am. If I had different parents, if I had a different family, if I wasn't Catholic- if, if, if... then I might have a girlfriend some day on my list of relationships as well as boyfriends. But I don't have different parents, or a different family, and I am Catholic. So I have to hide the fact that I am bisexual- for my family, for my God, and for myself...

So I'm afraid of love.

Not friendly love, but romance. Because even if I do marry a man some day who I truly, unconditionally love, I'll feel cheated. Because what if my options were too limited, and I fall for a woman who I end up loving more than my husband? I'll just have to be miserable and hide it.

Writing all of this makes my heart hurt- the way that the girl I saw today made it hurt.

So, I'll stop. Until I see another beautiful person, which won't take long...
