My mom found out I was bisexual when
I was twenty. "Is this why you've been
so depressed?" She asked me. No,
I wanted to tell her, just because
you didn't know, doesn't mean I wasn't free.
and just because I feel free doesn’t mean that
I’m not still sad.
I think I have a tendency to self-
sabotage. I think I'm like the waves—
sometimes I break before I get to the shore.
