Mirrors, cursed objects!
They lie! They reflect that lie.
I banish these deceptive mirrors!
I’m a man, I will not cry!
The face I see, it isn’t mine.
I claw my flesh in vain
Hoping to remove this unsightly mask.
The reflection driving me insane

Finding myself in the mirror of my past, am I free at last?
When she haunts my dreams can I ever be me?
Saturday, I spent my afternoon with my Step-mother and my Father at Chuck-E-Cheese. For the first time in ages I had a deep heart to heart with my Step-mom. For me, despite all I went through, this was the woman who raised me. She is my Mom so here on out I will refer to her as such.

Being trans-male I often hear: “But you were such a pretty girl.” or “Why would you cut your pretty hair off.”
These people either misremember what I was growing up or only knew me during short periods of time when I suppressed my true identity. Today’s throwback Thursday is an Homage to my childhood and masculinity.
This one above is one of my favourites.
My point is in all these pics I clearly see a teenage boy. I was never the little girl people thought I was. If you want to assist in my transition please donate below:
Concept Art 3: Everyday TransMan
I feel my hand drawn Art looks better so if I do decide to do this I might hand draw my comic.
Main character concept art (ignore the cute snake he’s not involved.)
Very cute snake though flying above potential main characters head right?

By Damien Knight Is it so hard to say my name Why insist on getting it wrong Why make me burn with shame Instead of making me strong Does it make you feel big Like you can control me? Isn’t that just sick If you truly cared I’d be free Free to go by any name I want But instead people like you Prove the past can taunt Well im going to be true I won’t answer to a dead name You can’t control me And…

Is it so hard to say my name
Why insist on getting it wrong
Why make me burn with shame
Instead of making me strong
Does it make you feel big
Like you can control me?
Isn’t that just sick
If you truly cared I’d be free
Free to go by any name I want
But instead people like you
Prove the past can taunt
Well im going to be true
I won’t answer to a dead name
You can’t control me
And I won’t feel shame
I’m finally going to be free
By Damien Knight Bright colours cant take away the pain Sunny skies don’t mean there is no rain I wept feeling all alone surrounded While others claim my fear is unfounded Do you live your truest self? Or are you sheltered, soul upon the shelf? If I live as my truest, hatred and judgement Vile yells that I should repent But if I live as a lie, I’d rather be dead So I’ll be the man I imprisoned in…

Bright colours cant take away the pain
Sunny skies don’t mean there is no rain
I wept feeling all alone surrounded
While others claim my fear is unfounded
Do you live your truest self?
Or are you sheltered, soul upon the shelf?
If I live as my truest, hatred and judgement
Vile yells that I should repent
But if I live as a lie, I’d rather be dead
So I’ll be the man I imprisoned in my head
And those who would wish me ill
Those who’d rather I be killed
I will dismiss their existence best I can
And stand strong as the man I am
Fantastic imagery as far as your imagination can take you.
