So today I realised something - These skittles are cool, sure. But let me get needlessly deep a sec. I always thought I didn’t like the yellow skittles, or the orange ones. So if I saw them in the pack I’d leave them or give them to someone else. And today I’m munching on these white Skittles thinking “oh no I’m going to come across a yellow one any minute” and you know what? I must have come across a yellow one by now because almost the whole pack is gone. But you know what else? I’ve enjoyed every flavour I’ve put in my mouth this morning. I just think skittles have summed up the way things like homophobia work. They see the label, the ‘colour’ and think “wow, better stay away”, but if you take that away, chances are they’d enjoy the different flavours all the same. Back to your regularly scheduled poetry soon everyone !!

I've hidden away & been afraid of what others thought of me for far too long. Now I'm speaking on the main stage at Isle Of Wight Pride 🌈 Am I scared ? Of course I am, terrified to stand in front of possibly 5000+ people but I'm also proud too & you only live once so do something that makes you feel alive.
