Sorry
I offend you
In my attempt
Uniting body and soul
As one.
Seeking
An inner truth
Denied to those
Who are born
In the wrong body.
Travelling through
Various minefields
And battlegrounds
You’ve strewed
Around us.
In your fears
And ignorance
Of what
You don’t understand.
Leaving behind
Too many people
Abandoned
In pain.
Struggling
To crawl out
This toxic landscape
Into the warmth
Of the light.
Without leaving behind
Another stat
To be mourned
On November 20th
Day of Transgender Remembrance.

Author’s note: I had forgotten that I had written this, almost 4 1/2 years ago. Looking back, I was so naive, in my thinking that things couldn’t get worse, for the transcommunity, but it has. Just hope that Trump isn’t elected for another 4 year term, as President of the United States.
