safeIt's safe to say
I love you.
It's safe to walk you home.
I feel safe
When I'm around you.
Because we aren't safe alone.
And because no one can know
Our love will never grow.
Smothered like a house plant
True love, we'll never know.

Warning LabelMy friend is blond and blue eyed.
Her hair shimmers, golden, down the middle of her back
Brushing my shoulder as she rests against it during a movie.
Her teeth, when she smiles and laughs throughout, are as white and straight
As the rest of her.

My sister is blond, too.
Her legs, tan and curvaceous, go on for miles
And miles.

(They are, in her own words, her best feature.)

Sometimes, when her boyfriend comes home during the holidays
And she is back from college,
She greets him with a leap and loud cry,
Wrapping them around his waist, and her arms behind his neck,
As she kisses him, hard on the mouth.

I am envious.

Not of my fri

Identity"Identity"

Is it truly my fault
if I can't quite catch on to that term?

I don't see why I must pick a label
and stick with it from then on.

I don't know what I am.
I don't think I ever will.

I couldn't tell you
if I'm a boy, trapped
or straight
or if I'm gay.

I couldn't tell you
what I don't know how to say.
I can't fully express
how much I hate being a girl

Do I have to identify
as a boy or a girl,
in your binary bias?'

I am me.
Is that what you should see?

I want to be seen
for who I am
and who I could be
not for your perception of me.

How to Know if You're TransI see these questions sometimes, about "how can you be sure you're trans?" I see the sentiment often in articles that claim to "question" transsexuality, from well-meaning but pain-in-the-ass bystanders, and so on. A lot of it gives me a migraine the size of a T-Rex behind my right eye, so I thought I might help clear up some of the confusion.

There is only one way to "know" you're trans. And that's because you feel you are. Does this answer seem vague to you? It should, because it is. As much as others would like to tell you otherwise, there is no "test" for being trans. Ther

It's Not FairA man is on his period.
A woman is growing a beard.
He was just kicked out of the house.
She was just disowned.

A man is dating a woman.
A woman he doesn't love.
All for love he couldn't have
If his parents knew that man he'd loved

A woman is sleeping with a man.
An ugly, manly man.
Just so that she feels feminine
Because she wouldn't with that beautiful girl.

It's not fair
People live like this.
It's not fair
Bodies are wrong.

It's not fair
Love is shamed like this.
I thought we were all equal.
I guess America lied.

I Am the One FriendI am the one who will stand up for you if gay bashers give you hell.
I am the one who will give you my blessing whole heartedly for your engagement to your partner.
I am the one who will take a bullet for you if it meant saving you.
I am the one who spent a night in jail for disorderly conduct after trying to defend you from gangs.
I am the one who gives you unlimited hugs and kisses because you are my friend and mean the world to me.
I am the one who will give you unconditional love no matter what.
I am the one who you came out to and I am there for all the way.
I am the one who cries when hearing news about the latest hate crime with

In My ClosetWhen I was a child,
As I slept every night,
My closet door was closed.
I feared what might be hiding there.

Some kind of monster maybe?
With scales and spikes and long sharp teeth?
Or a wicked demon waiting to pounce,
To throttle me in my sleep?

Though none of these things were true,
I know that now after so long…
There was always something lurking there.
There in my closet.

Now I look back and laugh.
If only I had known.

I am a boyI am a boy

I am a boy who goes out in a black trench coat and fedora with bright orange sandals to complete the outfit

I am a boy who will trek in -40 to the library just because his friends are online and he wants to chat

I am a boy who will cook dinner for the whole family, all 8 of us whenever he gets the chance

I am a boy who will respond to texts he gets from friends even if it's 1am and on the verge of sleep.

I am a boy who if his friends need to talk he'll wake himself up and go downstairs to get coffee

I am a boy who will help you out in math class if you don't understand the material

I am a boy who will not stand down in a fig

He isn't Her eOver the dead lake and through its mist
there's a girl you thought was me.
I punched her off a cliff and leapt after her
and hit her again as her cheek grew blotched and bloody.
We fell under the water
and I pushed her head down, down,
then I pulled her up again
And dragged her to the beach because I couldn't bear to see her drown.
Her hair tangled with the seaweed
and sand coated cheeks purple and pale
And as her breath flew out in shudders of palpillating viscuosities,
The world was less gray.
Dear girl, I never meant to hurt you, but you were draining my life away.
And I know they love you,
they love their make-believe girl a

Boy...?I used to wear dresses and play with dolls,
While wishing I was playing in the mud.
I used to go shopping and wear lots of pink,
While wondering what boxers would feel like.
Now I know what I am, I don't question for a second.
But everyone else,
What do they see?
I look like a boy through and through,
Everyone calls me a he at first.
Then I talk to them.
My voice is high.
They notice something is up.
And they apologize.
And I die a little inside.
"May I go to my locker?"
"Yes, ma'am, you may."
Can't you see that I'm a boy, are you blind?
My full name... What boy is named that?
Mother, why? Why label me this?
There's a boy

Change in the WorldI was recently asked the question :

"If you could rid the world of one thing, what would it be?"

My response? :

"Closed minded people"

My reasoning :

I do not wish to get rid of the people themselves, just their ability to NOT be able to absorb ideas and can only process the ideas that are fed to them from other closed minded people.

People like that should really understand this :

1. Bullying is wrong. cruel. unjust. and inhumane.
-Whoever isn't able to realize this is just absolutely horrible. You think its cool? or funny? You do not understand how much you can impact on someone's life by just saying one mean comment, in

Her.the silence is deafening and
the world on my shoulders grows heavy
and my back grows weak,
as your eyes narrow,
and your lips part
like poisonous flower petals
shooting pain through my body, and
digging the needle deeper into
deteriorating muscle, and
broken bones
with every word you say.
"i never wanted a son"

my foundation cracks
with imperceptible flaws, and
the earth i thought was stable
crumbles
under a broken spirit.
my broken shell
while this heart is aching
is bound to the wrong body,
in the wrong place
at the wrong time.
"why do you insist on hurting me?"

you tell me to be ashamed
to hide it
nobody needs to k

MY Happiness

Why should MY happiness be

Wrong
Illegal
Disgusting
Sinful

just because YOU don't agree with it?

MY Happinessby ~My-God-Issa-Girl

Literature / Prose / Non-Fiction / Emotional

The "pursuit of happiness" is legal in America. There arent any set rules or guidelines on how to achieve that happiness or what validates it as something that can genuinely make everyone happy. The law says that everyone is entitled to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness unless it infringes on someone else's right to Life, Liberty or the Pursuit of Happiness.

So basically, its perfectly fine for me to to change my sex because it will make me happy. It is NOT legal for you to try and make me miserable because of it.

Haters are criminals. Let's lock 'em up.

~My-God-Issa-Girl Jan 24, 2011 Professional Interface Designer

no this was just inspired by comments I saw being left on transsexual videos and Pink's Fuckin Perfect video about how transsexuals are people who have a mental disorder and instead of letting us get the treatment that will make us happy, we should be locked up and made "normal" by everyone else's standards, not our own.

~x-ECLIPSE-x Jan 24, 2011

Pink was saying that transsexuals have mental disorders?

~My-God-Issa-Girl Jan 24, 2011 Professional Interface Designer
