Chapter 1: My Goodbye
Nameless
My mother gave me name
And on my birthcirtificate it shows
But the name my mother gave me
No one seems to know
Everyday its something else
A new name they give to me
And the sad part is
None are my identity
On Monday I'm "Look at this faggot"
Tuesday I'm "He dumb as shit"
Wednesday I'm "He fuking weird"
Thursday I'm "Yo boy just quit"
On Friday I'm "Nothing" as I sit all alone
I cry and feel bad till I finally get home
My mother is there and so Is my dad
To him I "Aint Shit" when he gets high and mad
To my mother I'm "Lovely, Sweet, and Kind"
And those who cant see it are out of their mind
She says I should be proud and my name should be "shameless"
But until you pick one I'll just stay nameless.
Me Too
When I came home from today school I could hear my dad screaming
I walked in and what I saw made me wish I was dreaming
Dad was hitting on mom and I couldn't believe it
She screamed turn around that way I wouldn't see it
My mom is too good for him why does she say
All that he does is hit and abuse her all day
I cant just watch this I have to do something
So I dropped my bookbag and stood in front of him
I hit him with all of the strength that I had
That waa the first time I ever hit my dad
I stood there in shock too stunned to even move
And my sudden daze is what had sealed my doom
He dragged me upstairs my head hit all thirteen
He threw me in my room and beat the shit out of me
Once he got done with me he went back to bed
And I crawled down the steps wishing that I was dead
I said Mom you dont deserve what he puts you through
And that if he hits you he'll have to hit me too.
Alright
"Come on Jay just tell me whats wrong"
"You cant sit here and say that nothings going on"
"Bro everytime that I see you you're hiding some scar"
"Then you wanna act like its nothing at all"
"Yo it aint healthy to hold that shit in"
"You know you can tell me, I'm you're best friend"
"Well listen if you aint gone say how you feel"
"I'll just say this and I need you to hear"
"Whatever it is know that you'll be fine"
