A life without gender. Giving me my freedom that was taken. End to my imprisonment by gender roles. No I am not mistaken. Don't ask me if I'm a girl or a boy. Either is just not me. Rather I am a person, a human being that is free.

Agender (acrostic)
flatten your tongue slip it between your teeth _n._ your little lips forming an elipsis _o._ put them together and may you declare a word you’d so carefully deny— _no._ you spell it out on table tops shout it from the rooftops and when cursed hands seek to defile your shrine may you exclaim _"i am mine"_

this is how you say no
"Look at my beautiful girl." This title is thrown at me and I find it hard to breathe. You label me a girl, I know you know no better but it still wounds me deeply. "Look at her, she's so pretty!" You should know better than to call me this pronoun. I asked kindly that you use different pronouns but you throw these pronouns at me in a taunting manner. "You were born a girl so you are one." I was born a human with female genitalia. I do not classify as a girl or a boy. I classify more as me, as an agender. Please don't yell or shout or tell me I'm wrong because then you're saying you know me better than I know myself and that may be true but I don't believe it is so.

Pronouns
It's always a fight with you You think you know everything But you haven’t the slightest clue I can’t do anything And it’s all because of you I can never win these fights I get too tired But I always have restless nights I wish you had a wire My friends ask me if I’m okay I always lie saying yes Why can’t you just go away I can’t even focus during a test Now you’ve brought a friend And it’s gotten worse I wish this was the end I wish you had left first Why must you control me I never know what to do Stupid depression and anxiety I hope you know I hate you
