At least I'll be ready for my midlife crisis

Seeing as how all my days are crisis

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWxgrVrfzR

Grow out my hair,

Chop off the hair.

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6h7dUuzDhR

Keep the natural color,

Dye and redye it all colors.

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEQPbIfK5d

Get my nails done,

Keep them short and natural.

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuRGC4LEWT

Wear femme clothes,

Do my make up all nice for hours.

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVK6omQ667

Wear masc clothing,

Wear a bare face proudly.

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdnF4y8iFA

Who am I?

How should I present?

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7CIWjj5fS

Why does my skin not feel like

My own skin anymore?

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zBNo8IUJY

Maybe it's me,

Maybe it’s societal pressure.

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjoM1wPYKM

Maybe it's real confidence,

Maybe it's jealousy of others' confidence.

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzafxnfSq2v

I'd rather get stared at for scars,

Then stared at for having tits.

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RiANwwBAZ

I'd rather get stared at for looking different,

Then to be ogled like a piece of meat.

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYh0KYbpgGt

Maybe it's me.

Maybe it's the trauma.

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSlnfTaRrE

Maybe I care,

But maybe I really don't.

116Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WvI3AYOkK
