It's the fall

I love the fall. It's the transition period from summer to winter and that's where I'm at. My transition period. I've always sort of known who I am and where I fit in in this crazy world but now I'm discovering what I want. I'm changing colors with the leaves I'm being carried by the breeze to see more of this world than I ever have before.

I want change.

I wanna be able to walk down the street holding hands with another girl and be proud. I don't wanna be scared. I want to dress like a guy without girls asking why and I want to cut my hair without their ugly stares.

I want to feel free.

I wanna break out of this box that the community has trapped me under. I want to do what I love instead of what they expect of me. I don't wanna to wonder if my life is acceptable to those around me. I want to be me.

I want happiness.

I want smiles and laughs and memories. I want people in my life that need me in theirs. I want to be with the girl that I love and appreciate because I know she loves and appreciates me.

I want acceptance.

I wanna be able to marry whoever I want and have the same rights as everyone else. I want a family and kids that I can raise in a society that doesnt hate gays. I wanna see interracial couples and two boys kissing. I want to see parents supporting what their kid wants to do and kids listening to the stories from before they were born.

I want patients.

I want people to have patients in understanding what they see. I want fathers to stop and think about what they're gonna say before breaking down their daughters. I want girls to give them time because I know boys will come around. Boys, girls, moms, dads, wives, husbands and everyone in between. I want patients.

"I change myself; I change the world"
