Jeordie: A Transgender Tale
He hates school, he gets bullied every day
You're a girl, you're a girl they all say
He told his mom, his mom denies it, his father doesn't know, but if he did he would surely cry.
You're a girl, you're a girl she says all the time
He has a best friend, who hates to see him hurting, and says if she could she would get him the surgery and all the necessary things needed to transform so no one would even know about his biological form.
His best friend even went to the counselor's office and told them what she knows, they called his mom and told her that he's suicidal
His mom says: "Just go on medication." But she was sadly mistaken and was quite shaken at what happened next to her little "girl".
He came home and decided he wanted to end his life. He grabbed some pills and a knife, went up to his room and with no fight with morality, he stabbed himself and took the pills. Goodbye, painful reality.
Moments later his mother walks in. Finds his body dead, cold, lifeless lying there on the floor.
She thinks if she had just listened, maybe her son would have conquered that internal war that had went on inside his mind, the reason why he committed suicide.
As she kneels beside his head, she sees something under the bed. A note.
The note read:
Dear Mom and Dad,
Mom, please don't blame yourself for me being dead. It wasn't you it was life, society, all the terrible things they said. Dad, I'm sorry I couldn't bear to tell you, I would hate for you to be disappointed in me, and I've cherished all the times we had very dearly. But, before you leave I have one plea. Please, take care of my pets for me.
With love, your son,
Jeordie
