Sexual Confusion

Maybe I want to go down this street?
   The light is red but I am constantly
   hesistating. What is wrong with me? 
   Maybe nothing. I feel so unusal compared
   to the common person. They all look at 
   me differently. Hey I even look at myself
   funny. Painful memories of things I wish
   I could do. Maybe they expect me to kiss 
   or hold hands with someone who is opposite
   my sex. I don't know if that's what I want,
   I don't know if their's a chance for me.
   I heard their is a whole world who will embrace 
   me. A world that doesn't always go in a circle. 
   A world that doesn't always see in a straight line.
   If these feelings are wrong please tell me why I crave
   them?
