Winter is over, and so are we, the soft sunbeams of spring, I am beginning to see, I am dusting the shelves, and sweeping the floors, packing you up; sending you out the door. Our autumn was lovely, but our winter was not, after you broke my heart and we cried and we fought. I thought you meant it when you said forever when it only lasted from June to September. I sweep away cobwebs of sweet words you whispered, crumple up noted now regarded as litter. I throw back the curtains and strong light streams in I throw out the lover I know I won't win. My house is clean, and in a way, so am I, as I move on from you and hold my head high. A new chapter of life I am ready to meet, so I set you out with the bins on the street.

four month lovers
As I'm sitting, sitting waiting, As all my thoughts are congregating, I find my mem'ries to be tainting, Forgetting about my Charlotte May. At Minerva's School of Pristine Boarding, We first began our timid courting, And it was clear that she was hoarding, My heart belonged to Charlotte May. We got married in December, Rung in the new year close together, But soon after she got the letter, The letter drafted Charlotte May. They sent her back in shrouds of silver, No longer living just to wither, And her coffin made me shiver, Deep in the ground was Charlotte May. As I'm sitting, sitting waiting, Lonely, lost, and always hating, I realise my thoughts are fading, Fading away like Charlotte May. But I remain here, quite unchanging, The scenes around me rearranging, My days filled up with hoping, praying, Until I reach the final day, And I return to Charlotte May.

Ode to Charlotte May
Children that I leave behind, I beg you not to weep for me, for I lived a life that was long and full, I saw all there was to see. Children that I leave behind, keep living out my legacy, you are the captains of your ships, you control your destiny. Children that I leave behind I know you're feeling so much pain, but keep your head up, keep on living, and you'll feel happy once again. Children that I leave behind, do not mourn for what I lost, as we all must leave this world sometime, and live on in loved ones' thoughts. Children that I leave behind, do not fear when I am far, and when my time is up, please return me to the stars.

Return Me To The Stars
The curtains close and the lights go up We wait for the next performance to get ready. Soon the think red drapes are parted, and my heart jumps, because there he is. The show begins, screaming into the mike, Are you ready to rock? I am. They **** the songs, but after awhile I stop paying attention to the songs and start watching them. I watch as he throws his hair back, long and thick and curly, singing at the top of his voice, with the edge and rough raw that even a shot of T won't get me. I shift from him to his friend, his friend that is everything I want. He belts out Hound Dog, he rips into his guitar and shreds the songs a  p   a  r  t . His slender arms, with the bulge of muscle shining shining sweat. Furrowed brow and nimble fingers that I want all over me. Turn back to the first boy, watch his hips circle behind his guitar, his groin pressing against the smooth wood. Behind his zipper a throbbing energy that he teases with, smirking into the audience, with more grace and sensuality than I when I practice in my room behind a locked door. The tears come at the end, and I blink them back, always blinking them back. a  l  w a y  s. Can't decide if I like you or if I like your body, if I want you or your body. Is it bad that I want to strut onstage with my bass guitar laying flat against my chest, to shred a song with my vocal chords bleeding ****** raw? And at the same time, I long for a smooth body, a flat stomach and long, luscious hair, tumbling down my back. Gentle ******* beneath silky cups, curving me into a petite doll. I watch the boys and my heart aches, for him, and for his body. I don't know what transexual means but it might be me.

I open my windows and Breeze walks in, thanking me and running her cool fingers through my hair. The Sun thinks staying inside is a sin, and shines as bright as she can, warming the air. Dark clouds are an uninvited guest, and we soon forget they were even there. Meanwhile white clouds are beginning their quest, traveling across the blue sky with flair. The curtains ruffle with a flick and a flutter, and the bees and the bugs come flying in, I smile at them all as they greet one another, in the way they know how, with a creepy bug grin. I laugh like a child; my worries are gone, And reaching up high to grab hold of the stars, They dance from my grip and and keep singing their song.

Hello!
It's because I realised I trusted you more than I ever could with him, that I finally was able to push him away and pull you completely in.

Trust
I. I held her hand and tried to keep my voice from shaking as I whispered to her my love. She squeezed mine in return, smiled that sweet smile of hers, and said she felt the same. She traced the jawline covered in fat but for once I felt beautiful, her hands were in my hair and her lips were so so close to mine. Then she kissed me in the dark so no one could see. II. I told her who I was and she loved me anyway. Even though sometimes she had a girlfriend, and other times just a capsule of spiky-haired affection. She loved me in my binder and in my bra, with my ******* and my briefs, she said it didn't matter. But she kissed me in the dark so her mother wouldn't see. III. We were both at a party, but from different social classes. We both wound up in a quiet room, and I wanted him to notice me. He started talking and I let my mind wander; talking made it seem real, as if maybe, by some force of the world, we could actually be together. He smiled enough for me to know it was because of me, and he let his hands brush mine for a minute. And in the dim glow from the pary, our reflections came nearer and nearer on the glass doors giving way to the milky snow outside, and as snow fell gently down to earth my heart melted from the joy I felt. Then he kissed me in the dark so his friends wouldn't see. IV. Yes I know you love me, and you make it clear your care, but when you hide me away from the people in your life I feel as if I shouldn't be there. Yes you've whispered happiness, and assured me of my beauty, but when you ignore me when you're out in public, is it because you're ashamed of me?

1. My head itches with lice that **** on my XY blood and with each pierce of the scalp anchor down the long strands of hair that cascade down my back and fall in my face and betray my boy-like interior. 2. I watch you and how you know who you are, as you talk of hormone therapy and chest binders or bras and wigs and make-up and dresses, and I begin to cry because you know who you are, even if the rest of the world does not. 3. I want to cut my hair, but I'm afraid my face is just too ugly to have locks that fall to my ears, that even short hair won't solve my problems, won't have the cashier at the drug store call me "sir". 4. I'm scared of surgeries, surgeries that would leave faint scars beneath my ******* and allow me to walk down a beach in trunk and a bare toned chest. I have my binder but I will never be completely flat. 5. I think the reason I am so scared of cutting away the girl in me is because I do not know if there is really a boy inside.

Hair And Other Problems.
You're here. We don't talk, but I'm quietly watching you, so when you make eye contact shyly it's easy to know what we are doing. You approach me, sanitizing wipe, Band-Aid, and mic (complete with wires) and peel the plastic. Swab my cheek gently, and I smell the alcohol but it's a pleasant smell now. Put the mic over my ear, position it against the side of my face, tape the Band-Aid to my cheek, fingers brushing my skin. You send the wire down my dress, pull up my skirt and reach up for the end, soft fingers lightly skimming over my back. Adjust the mic in its belt, and lower the fabric. Tell me in your sweet voice: "Look right" I do, "oh, hair", you say, and I pull my ponytail out of your way, thinking of your soft short hair. Then, "Look straight" and as I do, and you tape the mic tape against my neck, I'm thinking "I do." Backstage I think to myself that you haven't done anyone else's mics, and this makes me feel good. I know later I'll be watching for you to be free, so I can feel your hands near me, watch your eyes rimmed with liner as they study the mic hooked to my face. Crouching slightly as you are up on tip-toes, and we can communicate silently once more.

Getting Miced
My dear, my darling doctor, I must confess to you a secret, my dear, my darling doctor, will you do your best to keep it? I know you have a girlfriend, and live so far away, but baby I could fall for you, and love you every day. My dear, my darling doctor, I never understood, how long distance relationships worked, but my dear now I think they could. My dear, my darling doctor, I'm addicted to your page, your comments, posts, and witty poems, you're even just my age. My dear, my darling doctor, I don't wish to break up she and you, but my dear, my darling doctor, I think I am falling for you.
