TW: **cursing **

I wish I could have seen it earlier

The signs were so clear from the start

The cursing,

The slurs,

The talking right behind their back,

The not listening,

I could go on and on…

You,

You

Are

Poison

It’s not a “micro-aggression,” if you know what exactly your saying

It’s not “internalized homophobia or racism” if I never said a single fucking thing about my identity

Don’t you dare pretend your gay when you call the queers things I won’t dare type

Don’t you dare call us queers stupid

Or pretend we don’t exist

Or that our existence is a joke

And then

Fucking show up to our party

Celebrating that we’re still _alive_

And eat our food and leave

I don’t say this often

But

Fuck

You,

You who is poison.

Don’t say your Muslim

When you use it as an excuse to not give a present to someone who called you a friend

Or laugh during a prayer

Or say “Oh uh 🙄 oh I just can’t wait for my snAtChEd waisT at the end of Ramadan”

Or deny that people who are less or more religious than you are wrong.

What the actual fuck is all I can say

Don’t talk about being South Asian

Only to skip going outside.

Playing games on your computer,

Bullying anyone around you

You say I belong in hell

That I’m a bitch who doesn’t deserve friends

Hun, welcome 🤗

to hell,

isn’t that what I told you the first day?

Who cares if I’m a “bitch” to you or whatever shit

Have you heard what comes out of your mouth?

‘Cause all it is

Is

Poison,

Poison

Is

What

You

Are.
