Until You've Felt It

Until you've felt the horror to see the body you're in 

Just because it's not your gender 

Until you've felt ashamed of who you like 

Just because of what the church taught you from a young age 

Until you've felt the gaze of a man three times your age 

Just because you're wearing something you're comfortable in 

Until you've felt like you're worthless

Just because of who you are 

Don't tell me to "just get over it"

Don't tell me that what I should feel 

Don't tell me what I am feeling 

Until you've felt it

    “If” this works

    Is the if in life possibilities I cant see?

    Or is it the randomness of it all

    The randomness I exist
