I Am She

" I don't want to change to fit their mold or adhere to the constant peering eyes of society. I want the way that I look in the mirror to also match the way that I look in my head. I want to feel the same confidence that I feel when I put on a pair of heels every day and not just when I sneak out of the house, I want my clothing to hug my curves and not be loose against my frame, and I want to grow my hair out and feel it fall upon my back or frame my face in luscious curls. I know that not every woman is the same but the woman that I've envisioned myself as since I was just a young kid has all these qualities.
