I Hate Being Trans
I hate being trans.
I hate repeating my name
i hate cutting my hair
I hate it when people tell me "they wish they had my chest"
and i hate it when people say to "look my best"
but my best isnt a suit and tie
my best is a dress.
i hate looking at people and thinking "i wonder if theyd be into guys"
i hate looking at boys and thinking "I wish i was him sometimes"
I hate feeling unsafe in my body
like watching a scary movie and wanting to turn away
wanting to turn it off
but you can't.
the tears i cried when i realized id never be the same
because im not a girl.
no, not with this name.
I hate living in fear of being shot when i go outside
i hate the world i live in
and i hate myself.
and i hate being trans.
