Status Updates From Boys Weekend

“And last, to every trans person in my life—every queer, every degenerate—who showed me what it could be like: that I could be beautiful too.”

“…I don’t hate you.
Before, I—
I didn’t mean it.

I don’t deserve this kindness. Not from you.”

“Just
Thanking.
You.

What I could
have been.

If things.
Were.
Different.


I could be.
Beautiful.
Too.”
