There once was a girl who girl who shone like the sun

Her smile was light and her personality bright

She was supposed to be a boy but she didn't care

She loved being a girl and she loved her family

There once was a girl who nearly died

A deadly sickness got her

She was so weak and at death's door

A miracle happened and she survived

There once was a girl who left everything behind

At the age of five she left her country

She left her friends, school and family

She only had a parents and the memories

There once was a girl who was scared

She had to learn but it was hard

So her dad beat her up

And her mom watched from the side

There once was a girl who was confused

She heard words she didn't understand

She had to learn what they meant and how to say them

But didn't get much help

There once was a girl who stopped caring

She didn't understand anything

And her parents kept hurting her

Was there any hope left?

There once was a girl that finally saw hope

She started to learn and made friends

Her parents stopped hurting her physically

Life was good

There once was a girl who started to grow up

She got an attitude and a personality her family didn't like

She didn't care though

It was still her and they should love her

Right...?

There once was a girl who got a sibling

A little brother to be exact

She loved him with all her heart

She didn't think anything bad would happen

There once was a girl who felt replaced

Replaced by her brother

The perfect son

The son that he was supposed to be

There once was a girl who started to lose hope again

Her parents treated her differently

The hurting started again

It wasn't physically but mental and emotional this time

It hurt much more

There once was a girl who felt like she was alone

She didn't feel loved anymore

Nothing gave her happiness anymore

She didn't feel anything

She only felt the cuts on her arms,the blood and her hands on her throat

She only felt pain

There once was a girl who was too scared to ask for help

She hid her emotions and her pain

But behind the scenes she hurt herself

Hurt herself to get come release from the pain

There once was a girl who started to explore her sexuality

Was she straight or not?

It never felt right to say that she was

Maybe if she found out what she really was she wouldn't feel so empty anymore?

There once was a person who found out their identity

Pansexual, aromantic, demisexual and genderfluid

They changed their name to Lunaria

That felt so much better

They felt a bit more complete

There once was a person that tried to come out to their family

Turns out their parents are homophobic

Well back into the closet you go

Just hide away and wait till your older

Maybe then they'll understand that this isn't 'a phase'

There once was a person who finally asked for help

All the scars, the blood, the pain was showing

Their parents didn't understand

But they decided to ignore them and focus on their life

They decided to make changes

There once was a person that finally saw hope again

They have plenty of friends that are a family to them

They still felt the pain but they could fight it

Things were looking on the bright side again
