I don't think
That I can play the part
Of that perfect little
Straight girl anymore
I don't think
I can lie to myself
And avert my eyes
During the naughty parts
of her R-rated scene
Why is it that I
Am a different person
When I chose a side?
Lesbian
Straight
Does it change my face?
Make me something
Beyond human or sane
I don't think
I can handle your stigmas
But then again
If I allow you to cheat me
I cheat myself &
You win
So I am forced
To chose between
The gravel or the foam
And honestly
I think I'd rather scratch my face
When I fall down
Than float on a cloud
- F a c e l e s s -
For the rest of my days
I don't think
That I can play the part
Of that perfect little
Straight girl anymore

Poetry: Homosexuality
You have to see the world through rainbow colored glasses,
My mother once said to me,
Because if you don’t, the world
by Stella Kaye
Forsaken
You have forsaken me, I who have loved you.
But you will never admit to it.
You just say: 'I'm busy' when I phone
Some think it's by choice
they don't understand.
What do they think,
that I chose to like men?
Should I be straight
should
Dear Homophobia,
Come a little closer
Let me whisper in your ear
Let me tell you something
That I want you to hear
Protest me
You can't call him 'Gay'
He was left by the roadside
Battered and afraid
Born homosexual
Not a choice that he made
Ripped
