I told you I was a boy and you laughed at me
You brought up the dress I wore at 6 and how I was okay with it
You brought up the barbies I played with and the horses I loved to pieces
I told you I was a boy and you told me no
Because I had an interest in makeup
But only because I was supposed to
Because I dated a boy and you don't understand that not all men are straight
I told you I was a boy but you insist
GIRL
DAUGHTER
MISS
I told you I was a boy and you told me that even after every surgery I get
No matter how many times I pump my body with hormones to correct me
I will always be your daughter
I told you I was a boy and you told me to stop fucking crying
To stop feeling anything
Then you yell at me when my suicidal thoughts explode
I told you I was a boy but you didn't accept your own family
You were set on me being your token child
But when I developed depression and tried to take my life and came out as bisexual all of the sudden I wasn't good enough
I told you I was a boy and yet you continued to make trans people into your sick joke
The woman in the mans bathroom was never funny
You morphing my legal name and my name together was never funny
You calling me a he/she was never fucking funny
But when I tell you I'm gonna move out and never look back all of the sudden you're offended
You always said you cared about me but all you cared about was your image
