Standing by faye

STANDING

I stand before you 

open and closed

awaiting your judgment

by my standards I am young

with less than a hundred years under my belt

I have been married

I have been single

I have known love

And I have known despair

I have been to college 

And I have flipped burgers for a living

I have been homeless and 

I have owned a home

And I stand before you 

open and closed

awaiting your judgment

I’ve been healthy

I’ve been sick

I’ve been a child playing without care

I’ve been loved

I’ve been hated

I’ve been a student making ends meet

I’ve been young

And I’ve felt old

And I stand before you 

open and closed

awaiting your judgment

I’ve been wise

I’ve been foolish

I’ve done things I regret

And I’ve been proud of things I’ve done

I’ve raised a family

And I’ve had no kids

I’ve believed in god

And I’ve denied him

And I stand before you 

open and closed

awaiting your judgment

but you know FUCK THIS!

I’m only on trial because

YOU have a problem

Your problem is I changed What I was born as.

And somehow in your eyes it condemns me

But you know take your judgment and SHOVE IT!
