what would I be like if
I was a girl?
sallow face and jutting jaw,
glasses, braces, toothpick thighs
and bug eyes full of fright
constantly mocked by other girls
laughing at my almond breasts
uneven hips and flat ass
timid and easily embarrassed,
a social misfit
uncomfortable in my own skin
afraid to make eye contact
hiding all emotions
behind a nervous smile
but I’m a boy?
