this color that stains me will not shame me. i was born with it coursing through me. you will not scare me into being silent. i will fight till we have all the rights we should have had in the first place. i will stand up tall, my colors painted on my face, stripe after stripe after stripe and raise my fist. i will raise my fist and stand my ground and yell. i will yell till i am heard because i refuse to stay silent. this is my life, and you will not choose who i love. i will not allow you to push me back into a closet. you do not deserve my forgiveness, and you will never have it. my love is not a choice, and it will not be mocked. it will not be mocked, nor fetishized, nor something for you to decide. my love will not be caged by some close minded people. i will love who i choose to, and you will not change that. i, a girl, am in love with other girls. i kiss girls and date them because i love them. love is blind, and if you really think my love is wrong, you too, must be blind.
i was born with this color in my veins, coursing, pulsing, and speeding, and will not allow you to wash it out.
