You are quick to question but Occupy cisheteronormativity mindlessly Unprepared for queer identities Assuming I lack knowing of myself Reshuffling the same deck of cards Engaging in a play of poker with hatred Subjected to foul treatment The words you spat Unsolicited and unflattering Chasing my mind endlessly Kidnapping me hostage I have been coated in sweltering biohazards Nevermore to find protection and healing To see another day seems impossible If my own blood casts me away Malevolence becoming motherly Eliminating my mental health , Its those who think they are greater Trailblazing a performative show Sabotaging an already discriminated space To go another day with your words Itching down into my skin ****** becoming friendly Envisioning how I'd feel left alone From the moment you open your mouth Orchestrating emotions like a ballad Reconsolidating the toxic bond with binary Can't seem to wake you up Having to constantly do the work for you And what am I left with Naive justification and selfish excuses Gravitate your energy into doing better Exploitation is your entertainment

You are stuck in time, it's time for change. A thought I had in my head as I found myself frustrated that my younger sibling is being told the same unhelpful words towards her identity. Its 2020 and she needs a better experience than I did.
