The Human Connection or It's Not Easy Being TG

Printer-friendly version
Why are there so many misunderstandings
and what's on the other side?
genders are visions, but only illusions,
but I still have something to hide.
So I was told and I chose to believe it.
Some tell me pray, wait and see.
Someday I'll find it, the human connection.
My family might come to know me.

Who said that every cry would be heard
and answered when wept in sadness and doubt
Somebody thought of that and someone believed it.
And some know what I'm all about
Words of affection that give me direction
encouraging me to be me.
Someday I'll find it, a loving acceptance.
My family will come to know me.

All of us under its spell.

We know that it's probably magic.

Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices?
I've heard them calling her name.
Is this the sweet sound that called every other.
The voice might be one and the same.
I've heard it too many times to ignore it.
It's someone whom I'm meant to be.
Someday we'll find it, a loving acceptance.
My sisters, the dreamers and me.

(To my muse...YASAG and a Princess too!)

I do so hope you find that family acceptance, Drea. It was a beautiful poem. My own family's kind of dead (how rude of them!) and were pretty hopeless in terms of communication, feelings & such even before that; but not all families have to be ones of direct genetic lineage, and I'm so grateful you're my sister...

~~~hugs mi sorella, Laika

Love the tune. Love the new lyrics more.

I've loved this song since I first heard it. To have a *much* deeper set of lyrics put to it is a wonderful treat.

Oh, that magic feeling - nowhere to go.

It's a bit confusing to me

that people can accept a banjo strummin', singing frog whose girlfriend is a pig, but find TG persons too bizarre to contemplate.

Someday we'll find it, a loving acceptance.
My sisters, the dreamers and me.

What a nice thought. Thank you for making my day

Way to Go

Now that's the stuff! Give your dreams wings and use your energies to be creative.

And don't forget what Monty Pyton and his lads said, "Always look on the brighter side of life, do-do, do-do, do-do-do-do."
