You for you

It really is so totally
alright to have apprehension
about the implications
of addressing your emerging
homosexuality
within yourself,
and the change in dynamic, either real or perceived,
between yourself and all your
friends,
family,
peers…
everyone.

Yeah, it’s pretty fuckin’ scary.

Because, when you’re a thinker,
you can imagine all the bad things
that might happen…vividly,
with much clarity.
But the upside, well, is cloudier,
not as easy to interpret,more…
unknown.

But that’s all right.
Really.

This is a period of discovery,
for yourself, and for those around you.
And, depending how you look at it,
a very negative,
or a very
positive experience.

For you, it will be a great time in your life.
For you will figure out,
very easily,
who loves you for you,
and you will be so happy to find
that almost everyone you know
does love you for you.

And, once you’ve got that figured, everything else will slide right into place.
