PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

There is a little secret that I've been keeping from everyone

But I think i might spill it now, won't that be fun?

My body isn't like everyone else

I try to look like I'm a dude

But I'm mostly female

It's kind of funny that She wants a girl... 

The answer has always been there, just under my iron mask. 

I defy genders, you can't tell that I am not a normal guy

But other things around here beg to differ

Now you can tell that I am in hell

I'm a woman who is in lifelong denial

I have a variation of that magical time every month 

I can't watch a sad movie or listen to a sad song without crying

Don't try to understand it, even I can't

The doctors were perplexed from day 1

I was always like this, and have been lying for many years

Even mommy and daddy have forgotten my secret...

At this point, I am the only who knows or remembers

Sorry friends for deceiving you!

It's much too late to remove that mask of mine... 

 But, can you please help a girl out?
