i slept in my binder again
i slept
in my binder
last night,
the fabric compressing
tight
holding my ribs
close
to keep the broken pieces of my heart
from falling out
and s h a t t e r i n g
at my feet
the sharp sounds
unheard
to those around me
as they ignore the tears
f

from my cheeks

I really relate to this. I love how you write the word falling both as tears falling and also as your flat chest with your binder. I am going to assume that you are a trans male? I am too. You should check out my poem, you may relate. I just wanted to let you know that everything will be okay. You will find the support that you need and you will reach your goals wether it be T or top surgery or anything- I believe in you adn I promise you- you will make it. We both will.
