I have a daugher who was born a girl,

The thoughts in her mind made her hurl,

She knew she was different since she was five,

And when she hit 16 she found it hard to survive,

I told her that there was nothing wrong,

But she told me that she didn't belong,

At night she would cry her self to sleep,

It killed me inside to hear her weep,

So one day i made her confess,

At why she refused to wear a dress,

She sat up straight and looked me in the eye,

She said her whole existence was a lie,

She was born in a girls body but she was a boy,

And that is why she would always play with a males toy,

She cried in my arms as i held her tight,

I hold her close and told her "it will be alright",

For i love you no matter what,

Do not be something that you are not,

She smiled at me and i smiled back,

Our love for each other did not lack,

She slowly came out to everyone,

They were all excepting except one,

Her bestfriend mocked and laughed at her,

And they were no longer friends by the end of the year,

But she did not cry for she was not sad,

She had a ton of support so it was not bad,

We started the treatment straight away,

It did not matter how much we would have to pay,

He is the happiest guy that i know

And it is rare for him to now sink down low,

On his 19th birthday he got the surgery,

And he always tells me how he feels free,

This is the story of how my boy was born a girl.
