My worth isn’t clear to you.
Is yours to you?
I’ve fought for our love to shine
but you can’t see me too.
Offended by my body’s nature,
as if it’s up to me,
well I’m offended by how you see
and how the love you claim
deceives –
the reality of our differences,
the way we respect one another,
the truth that has always been
you would like some other, body to lie with.
Now you don’t have to lie to your self
I’ve done the hard work,
trading you back in
demanding a refund
of my worth.
