The Trans Life

It's been a long, when I was born
In a village house having cattle with big horn
Since my life is sometimes creepy and sometimes tasteless like corn
And one day, my life felt the dangerous dawn

A day when my dad came to know me
He felt I'm not he but the She
That was the hardest time I ever face
And somehow they managed to throw me out of their place

I was not even a teen to understand
But started growing mature enough to withstand
At my 19th I understand I'm not normal
And started wearing tag 'Trans' as usual as formal

I met more people like me and felt the breeze
That is colder enough to make my blood freeze
I started from the way where I lost

Standing for those living ' The Trans Life'
Turning my weakness to the strength
Burning low confidence to ash of best breathe

Enough for me! The problem I created for them
The promise I did to myself for them
Both had a impact of growth in my life
Now I can call myself the best God's gift
This is the trans life
Where I decided to have faith in Humanity
Not in gender or even Community
