Me; written Aug 25th 2014
I've been taught
"it's okay to want things
So long as it's normal to want them."
I say to hell with that.
We're all human
We have wants.
I want to be able to come with a beautiful woman
And be unafraid to say "We're in love"
I want to talk about how I don't feel like a girl or a boy
Without my chest being pointed out.
I want to dress in a skirt and thank top
Without feeling like I've done something wrong.
I want to be unafraid of my future
Look at the years ahead of me with hope
Instead of fear.
I want it to be okay to make friends
Who live miles away,
And I want them to be okay.
I want my body to be mine
And not anyone else's.
I want to be able to say 'no' to those close to me
And have them understand that's my final answer.
I want to not be afraid anymore.
Is that too much to ask?
