Poem about the troubles of being nonbinary in a society focused on a binary gender system |
| Inside my head, I am at war A boy and a girl are screaming Both trying to be heard I can hear them, I will listen NICK hates rules and society LIV hates rules and society NICK wants to hang with the boys' group LIV wants to hang with the girls' group NICK doesn't show much emotion LIV likes to express emotion NICK doesn't care what others think LIV cares about appearances NICK values athletics and strength LIV prefers creativity NICK rarely keeps anything clean LIV prefers to be organized NICK hates rules and society LIV hates rules and society Am I trapped between two people? No, but at the same time, I am Our stereotypes force my hand Forces me to choose, boy or girl I am both a boy and a girl I hate rules and society Inside my head, I am at war |
