Dear Mom and Dad,

Your daughter died long ago.

I’m just sorry that I denied it for so long.

I am a boy.

What is confusing you?

I am a boy.

I don’t want to lose you.

You say you accept me, but you really don’t.

Dear Mom and Dad,

I know you love me a lot

I love you too but, a girl; I am not

Can you not see that I am in pain?

I am definitely a boy in the brain.

Dear Mom and Dad,

I am a guy.

I know it hurts you to say good-bye

But if you can’t call me your son, I’ll ask you to leave.

All I want to do is relieve,

This pain in my heart.

Please I don’t want to tear this family apart.
