Dearest Diary,

It's been a month since I've seen or heard from Bucky. Don't ask me why because I don't know.

The truth of the matter is that this whole... 'faggot' thing has got to me. I don't know why, seeing as it's just a word.... but it has.

I guess it may be because I never thought about that word before... well, not that one in particular. It's just that, I always knew and heard about people getting in trouble with the law because they were with someone of the same sex... I just never thought that would be me.

I mean, I'm aware of how incredibly strong these feelings are that I have for him, sure. But I never thought to classify myself as one of them. It just seems so... strange.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind it... I just- I never thought about it like this before.

And it's not like there's anything I can do about this, seeing how I completely lose my shit when he's here with me... I'm just totally fucking out of it. I can't focus. I can't think straight... literally.

Everything seems to melt away with him but... it's been what feels like forever since I've seen him.

But I've realized that this is something I can't run away from. This is me. This is who I am.

I'm gay.
