At least I'll be ready for my midlife crisis

Seeing as how all my days are crisis

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdp1KqBVyy

Grow out my hair,

Chop off the hair.

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKzyzgiDwD

Keep the natural color,

Dye and redye it all colors.

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJ4aTUCxlR

Get my nails done,

Keep them short and natural.

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbPOKw8Di9

Wear femme clothes,

Do my make up all nice for hours.

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQCwZRVfIf

Wear masc clothing,

Wear a bare face proudly.

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQo0WAWACVU

Who am I?

How should I present?

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7jClWcVjd

Why does my skin not feel like

My own skin anymore?

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtYzF88bag

Maybe it's me,

Maybe it’s societal pressure.

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidP4K0nkLK

Maybe it's real confidence,

Maybe it's jealousy of others' confidence.

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuTUQdui8m

I'd rather get stared at for scars,

Then stared at for having tits.

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VKnnt8WG7

I'd rather get stared at for looking different,

Then to be ogled like a piece of meat.

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSrxg3xQhJ

Maybe it's me.

Maybe it's the trauma.

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvVmkupjPj

Maybe I care,

But maybe I really don't.

146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKqOohAaxf
