Living in fear

Was always known to me.

I lived in fear as a child,

Afraid of my father and his moods.

I lived in fear as a young adult,

Afraid of my boyfriend and his swinging fists.

I lived in fear again as a twenty-year-old,

Afraid of myself and the horrors within.

I lived in fear in my home again,

With my girlfriend and how I knew I would be kicked out.

I lived in fear of my roommates,

Knowing that they were unstable.

I lived in fear in my mid twenties,

My roommate at the time was an anger filled person.

I lived in fear until I turned twenty-six.

When I moved into a loving home,

Full of understanding, care, gentleness, and love.

It scared me.

I knew how to live in fear.

I never was taught how to just live.

I am a sunset,

You are crackling fireworks.

Together we make that one particular

Hot summer evening.

Where the sky explodes and the sun chases it.

Bills, laws, unsaid social rules

Cannot change us from existing.

We will breathe the same air

You breathe.

We will take up the space

You take.

We will contend for our very existence.

We will triumph.

Eventually.

It will take all of us, together.

Together we can rally to find the strength to

Give us our own rights,

Our own protections.

Now, as I am writing this,

We are too divided.

The way they want to keep it.

So we must include everyone.

Every single transgender person must believe each other.

Believe in each other.

Breathe the same air I breathe.

Take the space I take.

Together, we build a better tomorrow for our siblings,

For our children,

For ourselves.

You must be perfect for each other -

Two icebergs off the same glacier.

Two people who blame the victim

For their abuse.

I tried to warn you,

I hope you never have to find out

How detrimental that man is to sanity.

You dared to call me crazy.

Baby, you know I have never been crazy.

I have never been insane.

I have touched the precipice,

I have looked into the water,

I have seen crazy.

Myself reflected back,

Yet it was not me.

It was another face that used my name,

My breath,

My voice,

Yet it was not me.

You do not know me.

I do not know you.

So let's pass like two strangers in the night.

In that night I hope you never have to see the

Darkest parts of that man.

You know what I find fascinating about Nimona?

The fact that she wanted to be a sidekick.

Nimona is easily the most powerful being in the kingdom, possibly the world. She could very easily overpower Ballister if she wanted to.

But she doesn’t. She asks to be his sidekick. And then she actually treats him like a boss and lets him call the shots.

Because at the end of the day, Nimona is just a kid. A kid who has probably never had a parental figure in her life.

She wants someone to look up to. Someone to tell her what to do. Someone to take care of her.
