I just want to say that I rarely am capable of writing much. This is also the only place I feel I can share some of my feelings because I can't deal with how the few friends or family I have would act seeing some of the feelings I keep hidden away from them.
ps: that Ø symbol is from math, it represents an empty set. it just felt like a way for me to say "No Hope" without using the word no, or empty or lack of. I know, I'm weird.
Ø Hope
wherever we go, whatever we do
we cannot hide from the pain inside
whomever we see, whatever we say
it always hurts, this hope inside
nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
they will not hide, these feelings inside
the tears we cry, the tears we hide
can't wash away the dream inside
to long the pain, so far from gain
it fades away...

It gets better,
You need to your community, other people like us, in your area.
We all feel your pain.
It does get better
As Wendy has said, you need to find community. Most have been where you are. Do not give up hope
Joanna.
no hope?
as long as you're alive, I think there's some hope
All too real commonality....
brief yet powerful and all too real. Thank you for knowing....

That symbol
It is also a letter in the Danish/Norwegian alphabets, pronounced roughly as the sound in fur, serve, etc. Its sound alone fits here, not just the maths meaning.
I like it!
I liked the poem and I can relate to the feelings so well. I also think this applies to the feelings of people in many different situations, I have more feelings than being trans that I hide inside and not being able to share.

Homonyms, synonyms, heterographs, contractions, slang, colloquialisms, clichés, spoonerisms, and plain old misspellings are the bane of writers, but the art and magic of the story is in the telling not in the spelling.
