#Change #starts with #I & #We

In a world where

boys are told

not to cry,

I tell mine that

I hear him.

I hear him and

I am here for him.

That he is smart,

intelligent, kind.

That he is

not to be bound

by gendered norms

but simply be

a good human.

For he’s a gift

like our neighbour’s

little girl-child.

We hear them.

We hear them and

we are here

for them.

    It’s about time that we talk about that! Love your post!!
