When I wake up I dont think about gender

I get dressed into comfortable clothes

brush my teeth like im not a pretender

But during the day I get called she

I don’t particularly hate it

but i would rather they call me he

I wake in the morning and I be myself

but you tell me no

and put me out on the shelf

I cant be who I want to be

because you don’t see me that way

and its starting to kill me
