My brother’s hesitation

by thereisnosurvivorsguide

the sudden hesitation in my brother’s voice when he is telling me about loving women

the way he would talk to my other brothers about women

the way he talks to his friends

“I can’t talk to you about this, it’s weird.”

we dance around my sexuality as if it’s the thing always making everything weird

a women loving woman

Woman

and suddenly he realizes that I am a woman

.

.                                            what’s weird for him is that he respects me
