Will you still love me? A free style poem

I cut my hair today...will you still love me?
"Of course! It's just hair."

I bought new clothes today...will you still love me?
"Of course! They're just clothes."

I changed my name today...will you still love me?
"Of course! But you're still [blank] to me."

I hid my [gender specific body part] today...will you still love me?
"Of course..."

I legally changed my gender today...will you still love me?
"...sure i guess"

My name is [blank] now and I'm a [different gender]...do you still love me?
"I don't know where this came from but i just can't accept it. No i don't love you."

Why is that the breaking point?
Why is that when people are suddenly shocked?
Didn't you see the signs?
Didn't you hear me wish for this a hundred times?
Didn't you know my heart?
Weren't you a part of my soul?

Why don't you love me anymore...?
To my family who will never read this
