Me!

I am happy can’t you see
Are these tears from the sea
This smile I where for all to see
Is from the hurt feel in side

I am a fake
I am a liar
I am someone that no one knows
Not even me
I sit high on the steps
So I can look down upon those who have done me wrong

Marguritte was a little girl
Her hair was full of curl
She was a black as midnight
That is what all had said about her
She was not planned
She was not wanted
People wanted her to be aborted
Mommy said no for the first time in her life
It was difficult for her in my early life

Everyday when I was younger
I went to the house of horrors
It had food, and kind people
There was great love from my aunt and uncle
It had fun, and good people too
But deep inside it was full of danger
The danger came in a boy named Steve

Steve was bad from the day of his birth
Mean, and nasty and so good looking
Everyone knew he was bad but they never knew
Just how bad
He cut my face when I was just 2 months
That is what they all said
I have the scares upon my face I know it is true
That is why I am so blue

A therapist once told me it is not that bad
I should just get it out of my head.
No one can see them
Don’t you worry
But that is the only thing I see is my scare
There is something bigger that he had did
He made me holler and bleed red
He promised me candy, he promised to be my friend
But that never happened even at the end

One day he promised that my other cousins wanted to be my friend
I was so excited until then
We played ball that day
We watched tv
We had dinner
They said lets go upstairs and play
I was 7 or 8 they were 16 and older
And then it happened that awful day
That started off being full of play

The play got rough and my clothes got torn
Dey put things in my mouth
Dey put things ebery where dat dey cud
Id was steve tomy mak
I hd to lae down I hrt so bad
I tuk toel frm da shelv and hld it clse da blod kept coming out

Stev said the nest tim it wuld nt hrt
But id did ebry tim
