Hell
You threaten me with… hell?

Do you not realize, I am already living it?

Every stab, every slap in the face
As I am told I am not worthy,
Because of how I was born

As I am told who I am, by a complete stranger
As I am held back, because of things I can’t change
And I wouldn’t, if I could

Where my love is wrong
Where, I tell you, I am he,
And you say, no, you are she

Where I live in fear,
I flinch at every sound,
With the memory of HIS hands around my throat?

I live in pain,
My body betrays me,
As if my anguish wasn’t enough

And you think to threaten me,
With hell?
