I sit here and wonder if I’m doing the right thing
Should I push my friends away as I have been
Or should I just give up
Do I continue to hide behind these walls I have made
Or do I show them all that I’m just a wimp
Will they laugh at me if I do
Do I tell them my deepest darkest secret
Or do I keep it to myself
Should I be afraid of what they would say
And if they laugh at me and turn their backs
Should I care
They don’t know what is wrong with me
And I’m not sure I should tell
Would they look at me differently
Would they even care
Could we still be friends
Or would they throw me to the side to forever be a freak
Would they start rumors and laugh at me
Would they beat me up
I think I should keep it to myself
But I’m not totally sure
If they are my friends
Shouldn’t they try to understand
Bit if I tell
Would they stop talking to me
Would they keep my secrets
I don’t know what to do
I don’t think I would even be able to say it
Should I tell you guys
Will you try to understand
I need to know
Please tell me the truth
And if I tell you and you are disgusted
Would you keep everything you know about me secret
This is the question I need answered most
So will you please tell me
And please try to understand
I need your help
Please, please try to understand

l know exactly how you feel, l went through the same set of fears and hopes when l told my freinds l was gay, and lter when l told them something else... whatever your secret is, you'll get through it, and if you need to talk to someone who knows what its like to live a lie your entire life, l'm here...

you worded this in an amazing way, but more important, you got the feelings out, so even if they come back in five minutes, they won't be as bad. this is a wonderful peace of work... l'm gonna print it, if u don mind.

hmm, i wonder a lot about friendships myself too...good write on this topic

Or would they throw me to the side to forever be a freak

I know it sounds cliched but true friends don't ditch you aside...they stand by you and work with you all the negativity you are feeling...of course, you have to decide whether these friends are trustworthy before you confide in them. although even if you deem them reliable, it's hard to come out
as this places you in a vulnerable position and it may be a sucky place to be, ya?

hugs...i hope it all works out

hey i hope you find the answers to your problem, i just have to say one thing, you should not be worried about what others will say. but here's something to remember (in poem form)

all you can do
is tell them how you feel,
and if they reject you for that,
then thier friendship is not real.
  
so find out if it is, good luck
