“I’ve got stories under my skin— women whom I’ve adored in silence, to whom I’d offer my whole being if they asked. Peel my heart open like ripe mangos in August or Post-its left in prayer rooms. After de-converting, I sought repentance, relentless in my search for a cure in a man, longing for a "he" to dim the light in my eye that sparkles for curvy silhouettes and sharp tongues. But I found no one. My heart ached with an emptiness, my soul bellowing in darkness it didn’t need to endure.” LgbtqiaDeconversionLate Blooming Lesbian Author:Jasmine Farrell
“No more folding into someone else's arms like a polite lie. Forget making space in my mouth for words that don't fit.

The ones who looked at me like I was a watery reflection and finally, I looked back.” Coming OutLgbtqiaLgbt QuotesLate Blooming Lesbian Book:Rising From The Roots Source: Rising From The Roots
