Coming Out/Coming In Day

 Coming Out/Coming In
By Dreaming Ace

We live in a world where once again
Our truths are being criminalized
Who we are is being criminalized
Loving ourselves
Loving others
Love
Is being criminalized

Because people are afraid 
Of our boldness 
Of our belovedness
Of our self-knowledge

Because people are afraid
Of living
Of love
Of joy

Because people are afraid
Saying the word Gay makes people Gay?
Providing gender affirming care 
Is anything other than the totally right thing to do?

Today is a day where we speak that we should come out
But for all too many of my siblings that is unsafe
Coming out means being willing to be a flag bearer
As the air is filled with harm

So whether you come out this day
So whether you come in to yourself this day
It does not matter

You are loved
You are beloved
You are wonderfully made

So whether you come out this day
So whether you come in to yourself this day
No matter what anyone else says

You are loved
You are beloved
You are wonderfully made

So whether you come out this day
So whether you come in to yourself this day
No matter it can feel like our existence is being criminalized

You are loved
You are beloved
You are wonderfully made

Happy coming out/coming in day
