I look at my reflection and what do I see?
A Girl staring back at me
I wipe it away for this isn’t me
It isn’t whom I want to see
The image stays
It wants to haunt me
The anger creates a fury inside me
My hands clench into fists
Hoping to scare it away
I threaten it with an angry face
It threatens me back and I’m quick to punch
The pain is quick and the force is harsh
Glass is everywhere and there’s blood on the floor
The girl is gone though I’ve won the war
I’ve got battle scars I take them with me
I walk down the stairs and my ears deceive me
“Good morning DAUGHTER how are you today?
Did you have a nice sleep, was it okay?
Your hair look’s pretty
Makeup would go good with your outfi-
What’s with the baggy boy shorts and shirt?
Girl this isn’t you, how are you gonna flirt?”
These words they hurt me
I fall to the floor
Curling up in a ball
It’s the worse I’ve ever heard
My body screams I’M A GIRL
But my mind screams I’M A GUY
How do I explain to them what I am on the inside?
