Escaping Judgment

Whisked away from the judgment, those in who's eyes
The creator of this universe and humans I defy
My sin was to be trapped in this body that is wrong
And since I've seen my kitty it's now been 3 months long
How I miss her warm, soft fur and her sweet meow
3 months today seems like forever ago now
My new reality so uncertain what tomorrow brings to me
Will they drag my case out or will they set me free
New beginnings give me hope but Hope I'm still without
And looming in my near future a shadow born of doubt
So numb to new experiences, possibilities and friends
My mind is filled with only when will the waiting end
One could not be blamed for thinking me ungrateful
Surely things are better now than when they were God awful
Lovely humans, even some with whom I could connect
But the numbness will not let them, traps the good things in a net
A net of doubt, forcing me to focus on what's wrong
Reminding me more judgment will find me before long
