I would approach her about it... ask her if she read it and tell her you were worried about how she interpreted it. Just be straight up and honest... I imagine it will end in at the very least a laugh...more than likely a bonding moment about how she loves you no matter what and was acting weird because she felt badly that you were not comfortable enough to approach her about it.... If my child did what the first answerer suggested...I would ber very worried about how I raised such a closed minded judgemental person...I would not do that one if I were you.

i tell her i'm really not? Sorry this is long, but I kinda need help here...
Okay so my mom decided to randomly raid my room a few weeks ago when i was out of the house for a few hours, because she thought I was hiding weed or something (I have no idea why, I've never done drugs in my life). She didn't find any drugs, but she opened up and looked through every notebook in my room. In one of the notebooks, there was a bunch of poetry (about guys, school, sports, everything). Well I'm straight and very sure of it. But I did write a poem about this one time I liked a girl. I'm worried that my mom read it and thinks that I'm not really straight. Because by reading it, there's no way to tell that it was just a one-time (okay maybe three-time) thing. I'm not 100% sure that she read it, but there's definitely a good chance, especially considering the weird look she gave me (and still gives me occasionally when i say certain things) when i got home.
What should I do about it? I don't want her thinking the wrong thing...
I was going to ask her if she read anything in that one notebook, but would that be too obvious if she did?

first of all you should sit down with your mom and tell her how you feel about her going threw your stuff, second tell her that you are straight, let her ask questions to. in reallity it doesnt matter if you striaght or bi or gay, she should love you just the same, my oldest daughter is gay, i dont mind it as long as she is happy, thats what every parent wants there child to be happy, good luck sweetie

Write some poems for her and leave them out in plain view if she goes looking around again. Poem topics: Trust, how much you love her, it's okay to explore different feelings, unconditional love, teens have many curiosities, not judging others, etc.
If that doesn't work, write poems about guys you like and she'll get the message that you're straight.
