This is very cool. I like how it's one word at a time, allowing the gravity of the word to fully sink in as you pause to say it, also how it's all caps so it's as though they are being screamed or said very loud. Very powerful write and message! :D Excellent job!!
I like it - the single word lines are very direct and create images for themselves without needing any extra colour. And I love the way you have captured the battle people face, the negative experiences and feelings, the positive affirmations and the need to be loved
You wrote on such a relevant subject..Equality is something our society has to learn.. In India, the place I come from, homosexuality became legal just two years ago ( even though the verdict passed by the Delhi High Court has been challenged at the Supreme Court) and I think ours is the first country in South Asia to do so!! I think the world and we the people at large has still a long way to go to learn about individuality, individual freedom so that we don't treat people with different sexual preferences with prejudice...Coming back to your poem, I think you gave us one of the most exquisite writing. Very subtle and strong...Keep up all the good work :) :)
Everyone is born to breathe without belittlement for what they are for some reason people can't figure that out and it is nothing short of unfortunate.
