Description

Poem whose author seems to not identify as female. They write about their experience growing up queer and their attempt to conform after various moments that made them feel shamed for their gender identity. By the end of the poem, the author writes that they freed themselves from things like "foreign pronouns' and "games" that were not fun for them, insinuating that they embraced being gender queer.
