Life sucks, because I have many reasons for it to suck

Each of which seem to just make life so unbearable

Life sucks, because I have to get up so early in the morning

Even though I know it is normal and my duty to do so

Life sucks, because there is so many people in the train each morning

Even though they are just trying to live their life and do me no harm

Life sucks, because I work in a job that doesn’t make me happy

Even though I had the choice to make and still went with it

Life sucks, because I go to a school that makes me sick to my stomach

Even though all the teachers are nice, and everyone accepts me

Life sucks, because I am alone no matter where I go

Even though it was me that sent my friends away

Life sucks, because I can’t remember the last time, I have earnestly laughed

Even though it is me that chooses to stay shut down in my room each day

Life sucks, because I never leave the house, only to work or go to school

Even though I know it is my own fault for being like this

Life sucks, because I can’t help but want to cry no matter what time or day it is

Even though my life isn’t all that bad and I have no reason to feel like that

Life sucks, because I can’t leave the house without wearing a binder

Even though no one actually forces me to wear one

Life sucks, because I can’t buy clothes online in the store

Even though I could just send them back if they don’t fit me

Life sucks, because there is no shop that sells my shoe size in the male section

Even though I could just buy manly looking shoes from the female section

Life sucks, because my hair looks messy and awful no matter what I do

Even though I never even take the time to style it in the morning

Life sucks, because I still have to wait so long for my top surgery

Even though my insurance pays for it and I don’t need a gender therapists’ agreement

Life sucks, because I can’t ever tell people how I feel

Even though I had multiple chances and never took them

Life sucks, because people don’t understand me

Even though I never tried to explain it to them

Life sucks, because people don’t care about me

Even though it is me pushing them away

Life sucks, because life just sucks

Even though I know that that’s not true

Life sucks, because I just make it suck

Because I just complain without fixing it

Because I give up without trying

Because I don’t care anymore

Life doesn’t suck, because there is still so much that makes it liveable

Even though I don’t see that part of life often...
