The inspiration behind my piece is a theory, "Schrodinger's Cat," which states that an object can be two states at once, but it is not until the object is observed will anyone know what state the object is in. I mainly believe this poem is about transitions in life, where one can be satisfied with new changes, but can also have terrible feelings along with this change. What inspired me the most, however, was gender dysphoria and the emotions that come along with gender transition. I know someone dear to me who struggles with their transition and wanted to capture those conflicting emotions. These emotions won't be resolved, however, until you decide what you are: are you free, or are you trapped. Emotions are complicated, but remember you can influence your emotions. And always remember, no matter how you feel, there is always someone there for you!
