This Cruel World
This Cruel World
a Poem by Raquel Swann
This cruel world takes
no mercy on the likes
of you.
It pushes and shoves
as a bully would in
a school yard.
Pounding fists and
scratching claws will
never stop.
How much fight remains
within your soul,
my friend.
As battles wage you
must remain vigilant,
my friend.
For rainbows and blue skies
are not so easy to
come by.

Who am I? Well, I’m just a trans girl trying to make my mark on the world. The most important thing to me is that all people be treated with respect and dignity. Writing is my passion and I get great satisfaction in creating art in the form of words. Any constructive feedback is welcome!
