a poem that i created about being trans
I Just Want To Go Home

Being stuck in a body that isn't mine
Is taking a toll on my mentality
Friends tell me ‘you’ll be home soon’
And i keep asking myself
‘How soon is soon’
Cause I've been in ‘her’ body
For 20 long years.
And i just want to go home
People see me as ‘her’.
No, i will never be ‘her’
Who I will be remains a mystery.
A singer? Writer? Teacher?
Who knows.
All I know is that I'm not ‘her’.
I'm him, I've always been him.
Never have been her.
