Blue Deep Sea

Me, myself, I

Fucking Lesbian
“Excuse me are you a...?
I mean, how did you know you were a...?
Do your parents know that you are a...?
It must be hard being a...?
You don't look like a...?
It wouldn't bother me if you were a...?
My best friends a...?
Did you go on that march for..?
How do you have sex if you are a...?
I don't mean to pry, but are you a...?
A, urm, you know...a gay lady?”
“NO, I'M A FUCKING LESBIAN!!”

by Sarah

Me myself I
I'm feeling low
What am I to do?
I want to break free
But can't

Listening to others helps
Talking does the same
But what will help me release the truth

It's like being interrogated
There is one big difference
I'm doing the interrogating
What am I to do?

Being gay and leading two lives
Why does no one else do the same
Looking around you can't see yourself
No one is like you

This is where my answer lies
I'm not a stereotype
I'm an individual
I'm not gay

I know what I am to do
Be myself

Why should your sexuality, being such a small part of you, all of a sudden be all of you!
