Queen pt 2
A Queen (pt 2)
she can’t live without her other/because his strength gives her power/and his breath gives her life/so she was apart of him just as he was apart of her/he was her/and every morning she’d arise/hair combed, make-up applied/and headed into a world/not ready for her/broad shoulders and thin moustache/that was only seen because the way her lips curled at the corners/when she laughed/she was born different/born to be something she never felt she was/she never felt the thrusts of the secret between her legs/because in her head… she believed it was not real/a feeling she never, ever desired to feel… because she was never a man/at least not in her own eyes/but when she stepped into the streets/mean looks and evil smirks she would greet/stars and whispers she’d receive/from people who chose to perceive/her as an imposter/a fraud/a hypocrite/a worshipper of NO God/but this was not who she was/nor was it who he became/he was a woman in a man’s frame/a different character with a false name/because he always felt beautiful/she always felt best in a dress/yet no one chose to know her/because her was really a he/and he was not who he wanted to be/because in his eyes he was always a queen.

Now this was a different track I must admit. Objectively speaking it was well written and gave nice imagery and emotion….Biasedly speakin i was like :
: LOL
@dafeelingsinside - yeah… bias. interesting. leave it to a man to be biased about this one.
@ISLYMORE - Lol, well luckily I know how to look at it from all sides instead of just one…but it makes alot more sense now because I’ve finally read part 1….I kinda read them in reverse order, which is why this one was like wtf to me….but now it all makes sense…
@dafeelingsinside - its okay, D did that too. leave it to the men to be dyslexic wit it. its cool. as long as you see how it should’ve read. i think it reads better that way anyway.
@ISLYMORE - Lol, I’m reading them in the order that you sent me the links…leave it to a woman to send the links in the wrong order
@dafeelingsinside - but it would make sense… that you go… in numerical order. i assumed… you would think of that. my bad for assuming. yes, that makes me an ass.
