For several years I wore the X
for several years I ignored the X
but I never changed my beliefs
or who I am
now I've taken it back
a X on the back of my hand
a simple profound statement that
helps define just who I am
it's a positive decision
nothing to do with ostracism
there's nothing contradictory
about unity and diversity
you made your choice
I made mine
we can still stand together
side by side
to define
not divide
a mere reflection of some beliefs
that I hold inside
