A Child

Written by: Erika Santana 
I’m a child with no gender.

I’m a child with no color.

I’m a child that was taught to love everyone.

I’m a child that was always told be who you want to be no matter what anyone else might have to say.

I’m a child of freedom of expression.

I’m a child who is gay & proud of it.
I’m a child with all these qualities but the minute they discovered my sexuality I was no longer that child.
No one’s sexuality changes who they are as people.
The main thing that changes people is the ignorance among themselves
