Once Upon A Time (poems and quotes)

Pansexual

Hands shake, but they look steady
On the inside I'm nervous
On the outside I'm fine

What do you say?
Do you just blurt it out
Do you ease into it
Or do I even dare to say it

It's just two little words
But they're two little words
That can change your whole life
There's one of two reactions

Either he'll be fine with it
And say 'hey that's great'
He'll hug me and things will go on

Or he'll blow up
Tell me it's wrong
And unnatural,
React the same as mother

Two words, that have so much meaning
But I have to do this
I've known for years
It's been too long

'I'm pansexual'
Finally they come out
I hold my breath
As I wait for him to react

And he laughs
And tells me he knows
I heard you tell your brother

And it's surreal
I've been a wreck
And he's know for weeks
