I wish I was Gay-Fiona Mwangala

I wish I was gay- Fiona Mwangala

I wish I was gay

Instead, I stand at the edge of a bay

I wish I could smile and laugh

Instead, I cry and cough

As I look below at the crashing waves

I wondered how many more have become its slave

One more step and below I go

So I thought of putting on a show

So I staggered and fell

Wondering if I would go to hell

As I fell there was quite a breeze

Before I hit the water and began to freeze

Many wouldn't consider doing this

But I thought it was rather a bliss

So as I sunk

I wondered why the ocean was so full of muck

To die at such a young age was rather bleak

But in the end, I was kinda meek

And so as I lay on my bed

Thinking, "I'd rather be dead" 

I wish I was gay

Instead, I stand on the edge of a bay

(Here’s another poem I created when I was going through a hard time. I hope this poem can spread some light on those struggling in life. Talk to someone, anyone because it does get better you just have to want it badly. My inbox is always available for a good chat if anyone wants to vent or just talk.

Thank you for reading my poem and have a lovely rest of your day💐)
