I Am Who I Am

By finaldestiny

Crawling to my corner
huddle in a ball
closing out the voices
in a world of my own
mislaid
tortured
queer as i made be told
persecution for who i am
unable to comprehend
where do I belong
ratification
peace
serenity within myself
help you to see
I am who I am
nor will I change
