It's hard to accept
that the body I want
is still a long way off
That my transformation
is far from complete
Every day, I struggle
feeling disgusted
as though my body is covered
in a foul smelling slime
that I can never wash away
But I carry on
finding joy in every new day
always looking to a future
when I don't fees this way anymore
when I finally feel like me
One day
I will have a body
in which I'm comfortable
One day
I will smile
at my reflection
One day
I won't shudder
when I think of myself
One day
One day

This world pushes work onto us
telling us to forget our dreams
our passions
and toil away to make money
Our loves get lost in the shuffle
maybe it's art
or movies
songs
poetry
travel
surfing
dance
Whatever you love
go out and do it
don't let this world
take that away from you
Our love drives us
without it
this world would be terrible
dark, lifeless
Empty
So remember
love is life
Go out
Go love
Go live

I want to be kind
to offer others a hand
without fear
that they're using me
I want to be vulnerable
to let others know they're not alone
without worrying
that others will use it against me
I want to be at peace
unafraid of the world around me
not wondering
who it's safe to trust
This world doesn't exist yet
but maybe one day, it will
One day
We'll all love one another
Share kindness without fear
or attempting to gain something
One day
We'll all trust one another
feel safe together
and know it's gonna be okay
One day, we'll get there
One day
