sometimes my heart aches
and i cannot seem to find the mistake
the cause behind the pain.
sometimes it's right after a dream
and i cannot pinpoint these feelings
that seem misplaced.
yearning
is the answer google brings.
not what i expected but it falls into place
settles in my brain, and i know that's right.
how can i yearn for something i never had?

how do you write poetry,
about something you can't comprehend?
how do i tell them without saying the words?
"this reminded me of you"
"look at this tiktok"
"wanna hang out?"
"you're gorgeous; never think otherwise"
do they know what i mean?
"i love you"

some days i love my smile,
love the way people say it lights up a room,
love how my eyes light up with euphoria when i look in the mirror.
some days i actually love myself,
love every part of me in ways i can't express.
but those days are fleeting,
like the clouds on a hot summer day.
oh some days i wish i didn't look like this.
i wish i didn't see all the bad in me,
reflecting back every time i dare to exist.
i wish i knew how to fix the cracks,
how to glue myself back together.
if only i understood the beauty in my flaws,
that maybe they aren't flaws at all.
some days i crave to be something i'm not,
and those days come much more often than im proud to admit.

she
doesn't smell like lemongrass and sleep,
but she smells like memories and peace.
i don't know if you'd find her in a polaroid picture,
but you'd find her in the drawings on my lockscreen.
and she
does mean everything to me..

no..
still wrong.
not jami
not flynn
not salem or everett
hmm
what about.. oliver
now that,
that is me.
is this it?
have i found the right piece?
did flynn belong to a different puzzle?
i can't say for certain.
but maybe..
maybe jami was meant to go there all along
is this finally me?

it makes me so happy.
yet somehow..
it feels like it's not me.
how can it be right and wrong at the same time?
how can i be so glad it's not my deadname
yet somehow..
so worried it's still not my name?
it feels like some sick joke.
everytime i finally feel like me i am cursed to feel so
out.
of.
place.
so dis c omb ob ulated
will i ever settle down?

it feels so out of place
something I've never heard before
never felt
flynn
the piece of the puzzle you haven't found a place for yet
it goes somewhere
but you haven't found where
there
it goes right there
on the emails i sent to my teachers
on the google forms i submit
every time my friends type my name
or say it out loud
or when my teacher calls it across the room
"and.. flynn."
this piece fits in the puzzle of my life
right where the words
gender euphoria
lie

unfinished thoughts
swirling in my mind
what would the conversation have been like if i had completed them?
would things change?
or would my words still mean nothing to you
pointless ideas i will never remember
interrupted far too many times to think i matter
it is not important anymore
just unfinished thoug-

"the mirror's looking at me funny, flutter feeling in my tummy, how the hell do i become me?"
freddie lewis knew what he was talking about
because how the hell do i become me?
with every obstacle in my way
how do i get past the growing pains?
when i'm not growing
i feel stagnant
like i will never change
never experience the metamorphosis i deserve
when will i see the boy in the mirror?

is this me?
the body i see
reflecting, staring me down and I'm too scared to stare back
i hate it
it isn't me
i can't stand it
i don't want this to be me
i want to be him
he is who i am
they are me and i am them
i am flynn
