i want to shave my legs, i want to be a girl again i want to be like you, i want to be feminine i want to be pretty, i want to wear pink i want to pluck my eyebrows, i want to wear a dress i want to paint my nails, i want to wear lipstick i want to have the softest skin, i want to wear the pinkest blush i want to write queer poetry, i want to write love songs i want to be gay, i want to be a lesbian i want to write about your ***** i want to write about my lack of a ***** i want to wear cute glasses — i have cute glasses i want my hair to fall down to my lower back i want to tuck it behind my ears i want to put it in pigtails, i want to wear it in a scrunchie i want to be a feminist i want to be an intersectional feminist i want to be an angry feminist i don’t want to suffer under patriarchy i don’t want to be told to be quiet a man is talking i don’t want to be told to smile i don’t want to be stared at with beady eyes i don’t want to be ***** i don’t want to feel unsafe i want to feel free, i want to be me i want to be published i want to win poetry prizes i want to show trans girls that we can do anything
