Sense Sonnet - Acher

Growing Doubt

I've never liked being a boy.
I should have been a girl I think.
A doll is my favorite toy.
My favorite color is pink.
I like to put on women's clothes,
And women's makeup on my face,
Then look in the mirror and pose
Like a lady who took my place.
I've told my parents how I feel.
They get mad and tell me I'm sick,
And that I'd better act right for real,
Or it's a loony bin real quick.

Maybe there's something wrong with me.
For now, I guess, I'll wait and see.
