Im scared,
This is what I wanted,
What I've fought for,
What I've waited for,
But I see what's happening,
Across an ocean,
In a civilisation not so different from ours,
And what if we're next?
I dreamed of this day,
A day where my skin fits,
Where I'm not wearing a costume,
Where the face I see in the mirror is me,
But I'm scared
Because they don't know me,
Don't know how it feels,
Don't know what it's like to want to scratch at your skin until it peels away,
A itch that can't be scratched,
This isn't a choice,
If it was I wouldn't choose this,
Who would?
The pain, the discomfort, the risk, the uneasiness,
The hell,
To be scared that someone will find out,
Someone will be able to tell,
That one day I may not come home,
If I can't be this way,
There is no life for me,
This is happiness,
This is comfort,
This is joy,
This is home,
I can't go back,
This is my life,
This is me,
I've traveled so far,
I'm home now,
I can't leave.
