Dysphoria Poetry

Feeling uncomfortable in your own body is one of the worst pains those of us who are young, old, or simply confused could ever experience. That being said, it isn't something many others understand, especially within small towns or religious places, and is often bottled up. So I simply created an outlet for myself that I know some people will understand and some won't. And that's okay; I understand very little myself, but this oughta help me figure it out. If you're reading this, I hope you find happiness and can't relate to the emotional turmoil trans people (like I), dissociative people, and maybe just insecure people, experience on a day to day basis. And, keep in mind, I can always be an outlet to others. There's nothing wrong with having a different story. No matter what you're going through, each event is to be held to the same standard as the next, and these feelings can't be repressed like I used to try and do. Stay healthy, drink water and take binder breaks. You're beautiful, inside and out.
