Transgender Poem! What do you think about it? Is it any good?
Being here is worse than jail
Literally I'm living in hell
I wonder when my time will be done
When will I be able to have fun
Being here is unfair
Theres no way you can compare
Your life to mine
You'll never do this kinda time
This sentence is given to a select few
Be thankful it wasn't given to you
For, theres only 2 ways to be free
And only 1 that is guaranteed
Theres no way I'll choose death
I can't choose when to have my last breath
But I can't do this time
When I've committed no crime
Luckily I was given a selection
I know I'll get a lot of rejection
And I know you'll be confused
But I can't live life with my heart being abused
So i'm gunna change myself
Thats the other way out of this cell
I'm gunna change my body
So that freedom will want me
( I was thinking "my Love" might be good where "freedom" is. what you think?)
That's the only way I'll ever get parole
That's the only way I'd want to grow old
Even though it wasn't gauranteed
I took the chance and now I'm free!
Thats how I feel. I tried to use prison and freedom as a metaphor about how it feels to be transgender. We're locked up inside a body that we dont want to be in.
