Incredible Likeness of Being

I have fallen victim to my incredible likeness of being                                         What was expected of me                                                                                A side effect of gender dysphoria and living in fear of discovery                           Until the charade had ended                                                                             I have kept my heart in protective custody for so long                                          That there are times I can't find it                                                                    Not even with my own mind                                                                             Which means practice makes perfect fools out of some of us                               Who are always trying to fit in with people                                                         That have no room at the Inn for anyone
