I Am Not

A FTM Transgender Poem

By Dean StewartPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

I am NOT your daughter. I am NOT your sister. I am NOT your girlfriend. I need you to understand this. I have told you many times before. I am Dean, not my birth name. I have told you so many times before I'm NOT your little girl. I'm NOT your friend who's going through a phase. Not when this phase has been with me since before I was ten. I am NOT confused. I am NOT something you can just play with. I have feelings too. I am NOT as tough as I wish I was. Please understand I AM a guy. I AM capable of being understanding to you too. I do NOT want to be a girl. I WILL be a guy. I WILL tell you what I want to be. I HOPE you'll except me for ME.
