The Web Poetry Corner - Katherine Tildes - Bi

Bi

by

Katherine Tildes

I
lesbian
I
straight
Why must I choose
one or the other
Why the pressure
to conform,
to be black and white
Can I not be gray

What if I choose
not to
What if I decide I
will be true to myself
Will I be smited by
both the gay world
and the straight
Is this what it means
to be bisexual
Stuck between a rock
and a hard fucking place
Sneered and jeered at
because people don’t understand
that I refuse, absolutely,
to give up who I am.

I
bisexual
I stand tall
unafraid
accepting of myself
forgiving of everyone else
