We All Might Be They
I me we they she he
Beyond only one possibility
Not limiting myself as a she
Honoring my other sides including he
Why gender ever only meant one way
Sure did limit us back in the day
It is enlightening, a refreshing sway
We do not have to make anyone pay
Calling girls tomboys or boys sissy names
Ridiculous; one of many silly games.
It is fine now for none of us to be the same.
We do not have to stick with one type or name.
Honoring the theys, hes, shes inside us all
We can now stand up and be proud and tall
Fitting no boxes, living our own truth today
It’s a better, enriched, enlightened way.
