Who Am I
Who I am
Is what confusing me
I’ve been trying to find myself
But I still can’t find a way
To know the real me
Confusion
Keeping all the secrets
Trying to hide it all
But all this hush
Just keeps making me gloomy
Expressing dishonesty to oneself
Could have been better
Because declaring it would only be a regret
Showing of who really am I
Brings denial and rejections from others
But I can’t seem to think
Why they wouldn’t welcome me
Just want to be happy and have a positive mind
Thinking there would be a nice someone
Who understands and accepts me who really is ME.
Thank You, Mom
I lost my mom when I was just a kid,
I didn’t know about her, who she was, how she looked
She had two girls and two boys
Two older boys and a younger sister
Four siblings that had to survive
But I was glad I was with my aunty, mom’s older sister
My dad had three kids with another woman
She said she wanted to see me
So my dad came to my aunty
To be with him and his other woman
So aunty told me to go with him
But my dad didn’t even care about me
So I chose to live with my aunty
Until I heard some news
That mom and dad used to fight
Others said he used domestic violence
And hurt my mom to the core
I don’t know what to do
But prayer is what helped me through
Then life changed when I moved with my dad
I knew my dad loves me
But his new family made my life hard
So I moved back to my auntie’s place
She took care of me and love me
For that I’ll be forever thankful
To my aunty, my new Mom
