about a week before i was able to come out to myself as trans my dear trans femme friend sent me this poem to look over. i remember being moved by the second paragraph, but i couldn't make any sense of the third

it all really is too clear now

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 7 months ago

That last paragraph reminds me when my anxiety had me at my lowest. Literally curled crying on the ground daily. Felt like I completely lost myself and had to reconstruct myself. I was clinging on for dear life. Literally every moment of holding on was a victory. Like the passage, I actually imagined having ropes to hold my mind together.

So glad that's behind me now. Despite the pain I feel now, it pales in comparison to that. Feels like I can face anything now.

Beautiful writing.

Beautiful. I really want to share this to some friends.

"Balloon on a string" is actually imagery I've thought of before myself

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

for me it was more like a 100lb weight i strapped to my chest. this burden i just had to bear. I felt light and free when I finally was able to tell myself that I could take it off
