There's no flag for my sexual orientation
As I am the only one
I looked at movies and TV
And I am squemish with
The two protagonists squeezing
Their lips together
I can't even watch them making love
While I take the remote control
And turn off the TV
I cry for the solitude that is killing me
Because no one has heard of it
No one is there in all the media
Talking about it
Making me feel I don't exist
