Come Out

"H, I'm angry! I can't walk on this earth and be my fuckin self! My true self! and I hate that shit! I hate that shit," He said, knees almost touching the ground, as he cried out, wanting to be accepted by those who loved him.

I looked at him as he allowed himself to open up to me with his emotions. His tears flowed, and I could see that he was slowly going down the same path as our father.

"You don't get to be angry! This world is a rotating piece of shit, and certain people on it are too full of it! But, you don't get to be angry because you won't let them get to you. You will be exactly who you want to be. You will be better than him! You will be," I said and fell to my knees, embracing him to ease the pain.
