Of What It Feels Like To Be A Boy

Of what it feels
To be a boy
I dare
To desire

For I am a girl
At birth
But a boy
Of heart

I put away
These maddening thoughts
Keep them from people
I must

A girl?
Become
A boy?

Unheard of!
Shameful!
Dishonorable!

I hide
To which I think Is me

Who am I
To say
What is me
For I am a what
And not a who

Go against nature
Why don't I
Go against God
Why don't I

Why don't you
To all who
Think this
Of me

Faith can
Be tested
Faith can
Be questioned
I think

A girl?
Become
A boy?

Heard of!
Shameless!
Honorable!

I dare say
