Never shall I forget

Never shall I forget that day,
The day I first recognized that other part of me.
Filled me with many thoughts.
Now it feels like seven million years ago, it’s been a few.

Never shall I forget that feeling.
Never shall I forget that pain,
The confusion and even the remorse.
Tried to hide it, but it ended up making it worse.

Never shall I forget that very first person I told.
I felt so free and alive,
Never shall I forget how brave I was.
Stepping right out of my comfort zone.

Never shall I forget all the bad times,
The questioning and the disbelief.

Dirty looks plenty and criticism from many.
Never hall I forget how this has brought me to her.
How happy this has made me, how strong too.
Couldn’t be happier if I tried

Never.
