Tables Turned In My Favor

Please.

Take these chains from me.

Burn them.

Burn the labels that hold me back.

I’m not your little girl.

Turn the whole world upside down for all I care.

I‘ll go back down the road again.

Start over.

Let me just be me this time.

Yet...

I wonder...

What if I had been born in the other body?

Would I want to be what I have now?

What even is the “correct” body, anyway?

Either way, I’m here now.

And I’m me.

Let me live.

Love me for being me.

Not my cover.

Read the book every once in a while.

You might learn something new.

It wasn’t the world that was put in reverse.

It was my world being inverted.

Now it’s back to standing upright.

I can walk forward again.

I just need to remember how to walk alone sometimes...
