A SEVEN-YEAR-OLD BOY DESERVED MORE THAN
CW: religious trauma; homophobia
hitting himself, praying to god
to make him perfect; worthy of existence. Because
he knew The Feeling was immoral: guilt hit him in
the crotch, but God seemed to like it that way (such a
Fucking pervert).
Anger ripped out their dreams, now unevenly wrapped in
sexual dysfunction. Destined to hear derogatory comments
such as “He’s probably gay! (such a bad word)
Such a Bad person!”
I have failed Christ, so they say.
But what if He has failed Me ?
