The Questioner and My Soul

[ Index

 


"Is there something wrong with you?"
he asked me peering into my soul.
Trying to analize my insides
seeing the whole truth.
Seeking some answer
an answer he'll be happy with
my insides tighten
the desire to lie ever heightened
though i only spoke the truth.
The truth of my soul
The truth of my being
The truth of my sexuality
The truth of my entirety.
I told the truth and nothing but.
Should I be ridiculed for this?
My own freedom of my sexuality?
my physical desires
that flame that burns within.
I cure it as I feel fit.
So when he asked me,
"Is there something wrong with you?"
I honestly said, "no".
