Transmutations



She knew from early on in life,
That something in her world was off.
She tried to seek her parents help,
But they simply blustered and scoffed.

She tried to play the role that life,
Had decreed for her to live.
But in the mirror private spied,
Was another life, as meant to give.

Courage gathered in her arms,
She boldly told the world:
She meant to find and live that life,
That her inner mirror unfurled.

She told them of her plans to change,
They expressed their shocked dismay.
But still supported her regardless,
When they saw that she would not sway.

And as this princess reached her goal,
Many did now agree 'twas right;
So she became the prince at last,
As she was always meant to be.

 

Author notes

this was inspired, not just by the picture, but by my own beloved Vic who's desire is to become FTM transgendered.

    I think that this is superb,it has heart and soul,
    in its message,
    'That her inner mirror had unfurled" I think you could do without "That" as it flows so well.

    Well that is an interesting fairy tale. I know princess's want to be brave like princes but this is the first that actually became one. I thought it was a cool story.

    Powerful emotions

    Your words express the difficult emotions she endured for so many years. Some people do not understand how this can be, but I really have to give Vic credit for being such a brave, strong willed person. He did what he had to do.
    I think we should all be strong enough to stand up for what we believe to be true in our lives.

    Thank you for entering this contest, and good luck!

    From a different perspective I suspect we are all souls trapped in vehicles of matter. I recall fragments of a previous life and perhaps this ability to retrieve from common memory recollections of our past from before we entered our current life, can lead to such situations. I had not pondered this matter much until your poem provoked me to give it thought. Thank you for creating and sharin and good luck in the contest. Take care,

    I admire you for standing up for what you believe in Those who don't understand never will, so why should you waste your life on them. You are indeed lucky to have Vic and I wish only the best for both of you and let those who point fingers go to hell! Well done

    Awesome write in so many ways. It takes a strong person to go against the 'expected' and be who they really are. The outside doesn't determine that. Who a person is, is who they are inside. Vic is very lucky to have you, your love and support. Great write. Best of luck in the contest.
