Coming Out

Have you ever been a stranger?
And stood outside the crowd?
Have you ever hidden feelings?
Because you know they aren’t allowed?

Do you wish that you were normal?
And didn’t have to hide?
Do you want to be yourself?
Instead of sitting to the side?

‘Outside’ is in the open,
And in the open we are free.
But all that space is lonely,
Is that how we want to be?

Do we keep our thoughts inside us?
Do we smile, and grin, and bear it?
Or do we tell the world about us?
Shout out if just to share it?

Because all these thoughts aren’t normal,
And being different is a sin,
We always hover outside,
Instead of coming in.

-------
Well? What do you think? Please leave me a comment or whatever...Yes- I wrote it. Read stuff into it as you will. Just well...Tell me what you think.

*hides*

I haven't written stuff I've shared in a long time.
