Untrapped
silence broken
talking at last
breaking the code
that imprisoned me
speaking for me
and others like me
I am not who you think
just frustrated inside
trapped in a body
I can’t control
never taught
to use my voice
now I can type
finally share
needs and feelings
even I love you.

Wow, that is the hardest thing to cope with in a family, what a breakthrough. And great poem Debbie!
