nephew.

oh nephew,

you’re going through some changes

my presence feels outdated to you

nephew

i’m sorry i look different

its a shame we’ve grown so distant its true

but your auntie

is no longer that boy thats you looked up to

and i’m sorry if that cuts you

where it hurts

but your auntie

doesn’t feel good in her body

she’s just coping how she ought’ be

to be her

and she hopes you understand

oh nephew,

i’m going through some changes

we not having too many exchanges no more

oh nephew

its not that i love you lesser

i’m just changing out my dresser

you can have my hand me downs

cuz your auntie

is no longer that boy thats you looked up to

and i’m sorry if that cuts you

where it hurts

but your auntie

doesn’t feel good in her body

she’s just coping how she ought’ be

to be her

and she hopes you understand

oh nephew,

we’re both going through these changes

i promise that i still got love for you
