Yearn, to Self-Discover

i reach out and touch your face,

but it crumples into our space

petals falling

falling

falling

away

as if you were never there at all.

---

hold on,

i can’t wait any longer

my body yearns for more

The T Needs To Be Stronger!

my

mind

runs

on

impatience

But my body processes slow,

Those new hormones

that i continue to rub into my skin.

---

all i want is to be held;

arms around me without question,

a kiss on the cheek

the forehead

the neck.

i’ll take it all cause what the heck

am i to refuse a warm feeling in my chest

that can’t be replaced by anything less.

so wrap your arms around me as i yearn

for more than just a platonic cuddle.

---

My voice is cracking,

skin oilier than before,

and I smell worse, that’s for sure.

My hair darkens and little hairs sprout on my neck and face.

Now I have to shave them off,

but I don’t mind.

I smile;

for I finally have begun to feel whole again
