Melanie C. Campos ~ MahTame
FOR TINA
Lost souls
Entrapped
In the wrong
Body, shall
You come
Out as real?
Man as woman
Woman as man:
Which are you
Supposed to be
Out as real?
Conceived child
Developed with
More of XXY or
YYX and born
The opposite
Growing up
Knowing what,
Is the real self
Confused society
Won’t understand
Lost souls
I pray God
Corrects this gene
And makes you
Who you should be
