Do you like to write? Poetry, song lyrics, short stories? Why not share? Living includes opening yourself up sometimes. Challenging our comfort zone, expressing our feelings for others to relate to.
Let's see what a talented bunch we have here!!!
i write on my journal, i have 2 of them one is about loosing my parents and how i deal with it. the other is about my x dressing
That is awsome, Lucinda. I just have notebooks filled with jumbled imagery of youth, loss, hope, lessons I'm trying to learn and yes, poems. Some become songs, as I often hear them to music, but there are those that feel more potent left to the written word.
Whew, that was a lot of typing, lol. Anywho, is there any poetic snippets you would like to share?
Precious Oddity
Held to the light, the shadow fades, like the veil of who I was
Against who I am, and who I want to be
There's a tapping at the window, Weeping roses put to words
Am I missing something, I'm supposed to see?
[CHORUS]
My precious Oddity...
How can time fade, when you make it new
It's been so long for me
I can't remember a time, I lay in a Lover's arms
My precious Oddity... ooo... ooo...
Unusual Union, where ice meets fire
Where Truth, is born a fiction
One part love, one part sorrow
One part Strange Addiction
[REPEAT CHORUS]
I am currently writing a multi-chapter saga in which a company has created a transition pill. As the central character, I answer an ad to this company. While my desires to change from a man to a woman are innocent enough, sinister forces are at play behind the scenes. I have written three chapters so far. The writing is descriptive and includes grapic sex, violence and drama. The violence is not gratuitous but serves to highlight social issues but also is tied to what the company is doing with the pill and me. I don't know if TGH wishes to post stories that include graphic descriptions of sex and violence.
Hi Anne, that sounds like it would be an engaging read. As far as content and what is ok to share here, we will have to leave to the powers that be.
Love to read a snippet !!

I occasionally write down a poem or a song that comes to my mind. I have published a few in Poet's corner on CDH as well as an article about being transgender and chronically ill with Parkinson's disease. I also write on a longer story depicting Marianne's life and memories from birth to present day. The title of the work is 'Marianne - The Past and Present Journey of a Transgendered Child'. After seven chapters and some 12 000 words l have just reached the years 2016/2017, when I started coming out to co-workers and family and also join Crossdresser Heaven. There is also a fictional, yet very plausible, epilogue describing Marianne's last days and departure through the words of the aged story teller, now close to death himself and hoping to rejoin with her in heaven.
That sounds amazing, Marianne !! A labour of love, no doubt. I would love to read an excerpt or two if you care to share?
Hugs,
Stephanie xo
