She is a woman that never had a chance to be a little girl.

She is a person inside a person. Her thoughts were always censured by a binary filter in order for her words to be accepted by the world she grew up with.

She is a soul that has never seen her face in the mirror.

She never got to take ballet lessons with the other girls or braid her hair or played with makeup.

She was never told she was the pretty girl that she always dreamed she could be
