on my door is a dress
a blinding green and animals galloping in gold
once i would've gladly worn it but
now it doesn't fitit's a disappearing dress
with it is my health
my happiness
my pronouns, even --
it's far too feminine for me --
i was okay with she
but when i stepped in the dress
everything didn't fiti would've once twirled in it
collapse, giggling, on the floor
and even though it's freeing
everything is constrained[ 4.6.21 ]
