I'm guilty because I make her unhappy
I'm guilty because my words make her cry
I'm guilty because I'm not the person she wants me to be
Which she says is myself
I'm guilty because I love her too much and yet I don't love her enough
I'm guilty because I've wanted her
I'm guilty because I don't want her enough for any romantic or sexual label to apply
She's not my crush
I'm not in love with her
My mental list of lesbian loves does not end with her name
I'm guilty because I can't smile at her anymore
I'm guilty because I hide
I hide away from telling her that her words and her actions hurt too
I'm guilty because I want her to feel safe and open and honest and I fail so much at
Providing her with that
This sentence can only last so long
school,
poetry,
angst,
