I am abhorrent.

I go against your values.

I am the old and new offence

Punishable by death.

I am secret,

The wolf in sheep's skin.

I am the cry in the night

And the question you never needed to ask.

I am an insult.

I am the glance you give me.

I am cast as weird, weak - and

God forbid you steep to my level.

I am human.

I am a loving smile.

I am a heart that loves with entirety, and

I am rarely played about.

I am thoughts and feelings, like you.

I am different in more ways than one.

But I am me, and safe in that notion,

And - at last - I am happy.
