Question

chasing a feeling.

i question a class given by a stranger,
as a stranger, with a stranger, one ever so familiar
i wonder who he was, what she said and how they cared,
how i came out, will i come out, when i come out

i question a sex given by a god,
as a God, with a god, one ever so impious
i see as she was born, as she grew and how she felt,
how she'll thrive, if she'll thrive, when he thrives

i question a world given by a mother,
from a mother, with a mother, one ever so distant
i witness her pain, her destruction and her ignorance,
will she die, if she'll die, can she die?

i accept the life given by a friend,
as a friend, with a friend, one ever so remembered
i grasp onto their comfort, their laughter and their forgiveness
he will live, when he lives, how ill live.
