getting dressed for my first night out as Melanie
feeling elation in my new space
at last the freedom to express my femininity

transforming
changing into someone soft, beautiful, flowing

feeling confident and lovely as I walk outside en femme for the first time.
My heels click on the pavement as I walk to my car.
I feel different as I drive, a softer being.

I walk into a Target store to pick up some supplies and feel so nice walking around as my true self in women’s clothes. My movements are different, more precise. My heart and being feel open and present and in love.
