Boy

I want it gone, I want it perished,

I want the angst, the horror vanished.

I want the body I despise

Up to the hollow sky to rise

And slowly, in an idle move

All its flaws to be removed.

I want to be the one I feel,

Support MY body on MY heel.

I wanna hear my own, real name,

Dispel the nausea and the shame...

My identity shall be mine

The thrill of joy to fill my spine.

The weak tremble in these palms

Should be the power in my arms.

The sight these eyes detain in them

Should thrill my lashes' every stem.

The touch burning up the skin

Should veil my body all in tin.

The sounds this mouth disperse in air

The thunder of my voice in prayer.

And if I can not be myself,

Then I shall put my heart in shelf

And let you all have fun destroy

What I yarned to be a boy.
