My Heart Will Guide Me

In a world of labels and defined lines,
I find myself lost and unsure at times.
My gender and sexuality, a constant confusion,
Leaves me feeling lost in this illusion.

Am I male or female, or perhaps neither?
Am I straight or gay, or something in between, I wonder?
These questions fill my mind and weigh me down,
As I search for answers, trying not to drown.

I've been told who I should be and how I should act,
But deep inside, it just doesn't quite add up to fact.
I feel like a puzzle with missing pieces,
Longing to find the right words to release.

My heart and soul are at war with my body,
The constant struggle leaves me feeling shoddy.
I long for acceptance and understanding,
To be embraced for who I am, unassuming.

So I stand here, confused and unsure.
Hoping that one day, I will find a cure.
A way to break free from society's chains,
And live my life without any pain.

For now, I'll take it day by day,
Embracing who I am, in my own way.
One day, I'll find my true identity.
Until then, I'll let my heart guide me.
