Sorry this is oddly specific but do you know any poems about liking a girl for the first time as a girl or repressed homosexuality or something like that 😣 Thank you 🖤

this is so specific it’s going to break my heart … 💛 i wanted to include some that didn’t wholly describe repression because we all need some nice love 

‘recreation’ audre lorde

‘[didn’t Sappho say her guts clutched up like this?]’ marilyn hacker

‘six sonnets: crossing the west’ janice gould

‘swan’ ana božičević

‘the aureole’ nikky finney

‘phantasia for elvira shatayev’ adrienne rich

fiona apple: letter to a gay fan (not a poem but very beautiful)

‘mayakovsky” frank o’hara (it’s nail on head if you can get past the pronouns) 


i know that i know more so when i think of them i’ll add them onto here, love u <3
