coming out

my thoughts and breathing were heavy

it was the friday before spring break
I typed, and I backspaced

I typed, and I deleted the draft
and then I typed.

my cursor hovered over the send button

for what felt like an eternity
I reread and waited
and reread and waited and reread

and then I pressed send.

subject line: ???

This is subject to change, but for the time being please use they/them/theirs
pronouns for me. Thank you, as always, for being lovely.

I took a deep breath and shut my laptop

and went to bed.
and just like that

I told a little part of the world
about a little part of me.
