Light and Dark, Happy and Sad
Hot and Cold, Good and Bad
All the world in neat little pairs
Not one without the other
Boy and Girl, Man and Woman
Same and different, human and inhuman
Pairs everywhere, but where do I fit?
Bisexual, does it have an opposite?
Soulmates…
They aren’t like silverware
Sold in sets
They only come as a pair
So then where?
Does non-binary fit?
Some say, right there!
Must I pick one? Is that it?
Two spirits, one body
Does that mean we don’t need anybody?
Still I am only one person, with one heart
What to do then…where to start?
“Bi” may mean two
But I am still just one
I could be my own soulmate
But that’s not as fun
As usual, I must forge my own path
Bisexual doesn’t mean both
Being non-binary, I have to laugh
These misunderstandings lead to growth
Pairs are nice enough
A trio or group might do too
Though the path may be rough
To myself I will always stay true
Whether you are staying in or coming out
Don’t let anyone give you a reason to doubt
Your worth or place in this world
Because baby, “pair” is just a word.
