Silence

I've kept my own sexuality under wraps because it cost me a relationship in the past. Anyone who knows me since high school, knows what I'm talking about. The reason I "chose" to be straight was because it was more acceptable. I was with Jess at the time that I "chose" to be this way. But in reality, I was forced. I thought I had something with her, and it cost me my own identity. I know I've only been with women for the most part, and that's very right and well. But women aren't the only part of my reality, my world.

So today, on the day of silence, I will keep to myself for the most part. I cannot be silent because of my personality and because tomorrow is the reading and I am more than likely going to talk with Amalia Ortiz (if I can get a word in edgewise).

However, I do ask those of you who can to be silent as many people across this country alone have been kept in the dark about their sexuality. I find it disgusting how we can call ourselves the land of the free yet prevent people from being in love with whomever the choose, just because some mythical being from the outer planet said it was so. Come to terms with life. Let those who have fallen in love stay in love.

Anyway, I'm tired and I won't do the subject justice if I'm feeling fatigue. Take care and I'll edit some more later.
