i deal with things in my own ways
at first, i hesitated
i didn't want to upload this
but this is me sharing
the eternal struggle
with my body
not so much with its form
more so with its entirety
sometimes i belong in another body
that of a strong boy
i am a girl, but i am not fully convinced

You are very androgynous, embrace that.
For an artist like you, that should be the least of your worries.
Oh, and you're body is beautiful, and you've inspired me with this photo. Maybe I'll do the same <3
