Transgendered
Location
Fake
A descriptor built from uncertainty and accusations
Tailored to those who do not fit regulations or expectations - freaks
Used by those who do not understand anyone and those who wish to understand themselves.
Bind
Cloth wrapped tight to hold in dangerous secrets
Around and around the mistakes that are to be hidden
An agonizing deception of the body for peace of the mind.
Deepen
Shrill words grated on the sensitive ears of public image
Raw sounds clawing out of a tired throat to keep curious eyes away
Because nothing says I am normal like burning out your voice on meaningless conversation.
Mirror
A reflected book of stories and legends under lock and key
Opened only through hours of therapy and exhaustion
A blurred, twisted document of haunted history unsuccessfully erased time and time again.
Love
Unobtainable dreams handed out by children's media to kids who need something to chase
Meant for those who don't have to fight every day to try to be who they are
Only a leaf in the wind outside a window of an office filled with doctors with needles and notebooks to figure out who I am.
Me
A mixture of confusion and self hatred
Wrapped in a chain of doubts and lost hope
Lost in a sea of hesheit hesheit hesheit and freak
Aching for an answer that will never be found to a disease that can't be cured.
