Poor Me

Lesbian search for love, identity

Poor Me

I am a lesbian
Sullen, alone
Locked in a closet
Yelling
I'm alright, I'm alright

Comfort
My Madness
My shrieking voice
Allow me to
Shake your hand
Relieve your
Distress

The part I play
The character called
Innocent
The relationship
I can never own

The tempting
Whirlwind
Brought us together
Clutching your fingers
Pulls us apart

Am I doomed to this
Petulant
Lonliness
Is my despair
Fleeting

When I can run
No longer
Will I rest
In your arms
