I regret to inform you Of a tragic, yet beautiful thing That happened to your daughter, or cousin. yes, Taylor Marie. She has passed away the day she was born What you see now, is a ghost of what you wanted her to be A soul lives in this body, so don't fret Instead of a little girl inside this body of hers, Is a 18 year old that wants to be true to himself, He wants to show the world that hes not Taylor Marie He wants to scream his name from the roof of this Probably unstable, Mobile home. He has the same likes as Taylor, well... we can assume he does. Since the body he lives in has been Nothing but a dead corpse Slapped with a label of "girl" A label of "Taylor" A label, he just cant stand. So i stand here now as an interpreter of Who i truly am And i will say this to you With unprejudiced truth To the parents, or family, of Taylor Marie. The daughter you thought you had, Is dead. She never truly existed, But i know who has, Who has wished he could be true to who he is, And will finally be true to himself for the rest of his life Your son, or brother, or cousin, Has finally been brought to the surface, Of a body that isn't his The body of Taylor Marie, And his name, Is Matthew Todd

i have told my aunt and uncle that im transgender, but not my parents and my cousin i dont live with my parents so its not a big deal if they accept me or not. my cousin on the other hand, ill be devastated if she cant accept me, not just for myself, but for her daughter who looks up to me like an older sibling. i think everything will go well.
