Stuck

by INTPTheatreNerd

Hiding behind a wall of secrets Kicking Trying to get out From time to time someone finds The way around They see behind all of the lies A small boy Curled up, afraid Trying to get a glimpse of the other side And when he finally sees the light Words like she and her Push him back He finds that it is best To rebuild the wall Return to hiding And go back to pretending That he is happy How people see him And those who saw Behind the lies Forget that she is really he It seems nothing will ever change Until the day the wall comes down And none of it remains

I wrote this a long time ago, right when I realized I was transgender. Middle school.
