  I was disowned from the church. I was raped multiple times by a youth leader. I told my trusted adults at the church. I was groomed by an adult into a relationship when I was 18. He left me when I refused to leave college for him. The church disowned me, saying I was leading men astray for not letting them marry me when I just wanted to go to school. I miss the community. I don’t miss the pain of being treated like a demon amongst people I loved.

  I once read a quote from someone that said this: “God made me trans for the same reason he made wheat but not bread, and grapes but not wine; so that we too can share in the joys of creation”. I cling to that quote because it’s the only thing that makes any sense in this poisoned jewel of a world. We may have been abandoned by the likes of humanity, but we are special because at the very least we have god

  &quot;I forgive it as it all comes back to me&quot;... I&apos;m gutted. I feel like that&apos;s the line we know for sure she has finally found true peace, where the weight of her trauma no longer bothers her.

  We all have that &quot;house in Nebraska.&quot; A time and a place with someone we&apos;d give anything to relive again. When Ethel sings about hers, I&apos;m always sent back to mine too. If things had just been different, but it&apos;s just not how life goes.

  If you grew up Christian I don’t think it’s possible to hear the line, “God loves you, but not enough to save you,” without tearing up. Her songwriting is just unreal.

  “I forgive it all as it comes back to me” she’s no longer violent. In strangers, she isn’t a vengeful ghost. She just watches herself get eaten, romanticizes it.

  The pain I feel listening to this song is indescribable. I’m not welcome in church because of factors I have no control over. Being trans and being faithful simply deem me unworthy of Gods love or respect from the church. Every time my mom makes me go to church, I sit there praising god and then it always hits me she brings me to try to fix me. That everyone sees me as a confused girl, at the most a homosexual woman. But if I’d been born cis, I would have kept singing on that podium. I could have been a pastor. I could have married my childhood love and raised our kids in the church. Strange how things always turn out. I knew God wouldn’t save me from the hell I’ve always been put through, but he was all I ever had. Now I have my freedom, and with time it’s going to make up for it. I am an orphan, navigating the world on my own where I am still miserable, but I’m miserable as ME. As the man I’ve always been, no longer rotting under a cupboard. If it’s meant to be then it will be
