─ONE REALISATION
WAS WHAT IT TOOK FOR IT TO HIT HER
FOR HER TO REALISE
THAT IT WASN'T, IN FAXT A BIG DEAL
TO BE WHO SHE WAS
IT WAS NATURAL, HUMAN NATURE
FEELINGS SHE HAD NO CONTROL OVER
AND SO, SHE STOPPED HOLDING THEM BACK
"I'M A LESBIAN"
SHE TOLD HER PARENTS
AND THEY WERE SUPPORTIVEHAPPY FOR WHO SHE WAS
IT WAS STILL HARD TO TELL THEMEVEN AFTER SHE MADE THE REALISATION
THAT IT WAS ALL NORMAL
THERE WERE STILL TEARS
BUT IN THE END IT ALL TURNED OUT WELLAND GETTING IT OUT THERE
FELT BETTER THAN EVER
