Declaration Of Me

Why is it
People think
Because I am
On Estrogen
I have lost my mind.

As if
The Estrogen is
Wiping away
Whatever logic
And reason
I might have.

When in reality
The opposite is true
With Testerone
Slowly destroying my soul
One day at a time.

Fuelling my depression
Until I come
To hate my very body
And the image
Casted in the mirror
When I look.

Thinking of suicide
As the only solution
To this dark depression
Of my hated body.

Where I am
A freak of nature
Of a woman
Who is trapped
Within a truly alien body
A male one
At that.

Damn it
I want to report a robbery
My true body was stolen
While I developed
In my mom’s body.

As I am
Forced to live
A lie of being male
For 38 years
Of the past 40.

But no more
This girl is reclaiming
What is rightfully her’s.

Screw society
And it’s binary gender code

Which has been

Rammed down my throat
Since birth.

Hear me roar world
Therisa is here to stay
No matter
What you may say
Or think!
