I want to escape this gender cage.
Let me know what it feels to be real.
I don't want to feel like a liar,
I don't want to feel like a cheat.
I want to feel this soul concrete.
Wrap me up in your arms, lift me higher.
I know that I do not have to conceal,
to be this royal and regal sage.
I want to dance in this freedom.
Let me look into your eyes.
You can know who I really am.
This is my confession to the world.
Take this soul, over the bars hurled -
I know that I don't have to be a man.
Will you let me quiet all these sighs,
to be redeemed in this gender exemption.
---
Strip all these concepts of gender from me and let my soul be free.
I don't need gender do be me.

Thanks for writing and posting. I am questioning gender identity, so this was really good to read.

Trigger Warning
Warning: Some of my poetry and prose may be triggering. I write just about as much about survivor issues as I do about love.
Please keep yourself safe.
