thank you for your time
 
I need some help.
 
I’m interested in it -
The honesty that comes from it
I guess I have a fear of intimacy
Of someone finding out about it
 
I’m quite real with my sister
Though she doesn’t know about it
But I’m sure she wouldn’t
have a problem with it
 
I’ve always wrestled with it
And then dismissed it
I’m a very private person
Maybe it’s OK
If no-one knows about it
 
I never talk about it
Or issues that surround it
Maybe I’m a coward.
I don’t stand up
And say what I think about it
 
OK, I’m thinking about my sexuality -
I’ve never let myself think about it
In those terms before
And I’m still a bit afraid
To say it out loud –
Even to myself
 
It’s time to be honest about it
Mostly to myself
I am just trying to find out the truth
About it
About me.
 
Thank you for your time.
