Stuck, trapped between the two doors that make up my world
Just a small crack that allows me to be myself
All my life stocked up one shelf
Isolated from everyone
Separated by my one difference
Looked down upon by society
But who I am shouldn’t be there priority
Playing pretend is my favorite game
For that is my life
A game of pretend
Trapped in a body that is not my own
Forced to hide who I really am
The crack between the door widens
The light floods in
For the first time
I see me
The real me
