I'm Kade.
I'm not
the little girl's name
YOU decided would fit.
I'm not
the boy you wanted.
I'm not
the girl you had.
I'm your kid.
I'm Kade.
You want so hard
for me to be
the girl
you thought you had.
You don't realize
that the harder you try
to stop me
The harder it is
for me to live
as a girl.
Or anything.
If you want a dead kid
you'll get one.
In a little coffin.
6 feet under.
I was born
with a girl's body
And parents
that didn't understand
I was born
And you decided
That having
A girl
Was more important
Than having a kid.
I'm Kade
And I'm tired
