I dance in my pink ballet slippers

I twirl in my purple dress

My long blue hair twirling around with me

I can dance until my feet ache

But I don't mind

I am grateful

I am free

I am no longer wearing the mask

The one they gave me

At birth, it was all they saw

It covered the truth

But I tore it off

Cause I am a she

Not the he that was on the mask

And I have never looked back

Why would I?
