I could be the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.
I could be the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.
I could be one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.

I could be the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.

I could be the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didn’t have to always deal with society hating me.
