"Brace Yourself"
  by Wrighter
  - This Poem is a response to the poem My Baby (The Killer) by A.Renee


Stand firm on your feet,
as you prepare to give into defeat.
The defeat is the reality
that you've tried to deny.
Now it's become actuality
as you question your own sexuality-
Brace yourself because the truth,
will alter your life.
Stand firm on your feet,
as you prepare for their stares.
Their cold hearted glares,
that will make you feel out of place.
Brace yourself for only feeling in place,
when you are staring at her face
and the glowing grace around her body.
Stand firm on your feet,
as you prepare for their rude remarks.
As they spit hatred with words such as,
dike, lesbo, fag, and homo.
Brace yourself to intake their words,
without taking action
because all that is a distraction
from who you love and who you are.
Brace yourself for those sleepless nights,
as you cry yourself to sleep-
wishing deeply that you could change,
who've you become
But as you prepare to deal with this-
Just know that you have a whole army
Behind you-
So if your feet give way
We'll hold you up firm on your feet
Just know that you are not alone
