<<<<<*****I Need to Tell Them (a child's story)*****>>>>>

I just want to say to them, I am sorry

I just have an impulse, and I just did not think it would be that serious

I thought it ok for someone my age to be inquisitive and curious

I have been told, “get your lil bad nosy ass away from there and have a seat”

I have been told “ go sit your MF’ing ass back at table and finish what I gave you to eat”

I saw some matches on the floor, right next to the couch

Yes, I have been told “ if you touch them again, I am kicking your ass, put them back down… NOW.

Each time I would stop, right when it was stated

Each time I would get punched in the face

4 years of life can be pretty cold

But, look at all the games I would receive when I turned 5 years old

3 days after my birthday, I had the best time of my life

I was playing with my video games it was my cousin and I

I was winning, and he was trying to catch up me

HA…. Now that is something that I would love to see

In my cousin trying to win, he broke the handle to the joystick

And it was not him, but me who got hit

I have been told “you need to protect and watch your own shit,

Because ain’t nobody else gonna do it”

But I guess this day, was already a bad day

All I wanted to do was stay out of their way and play

I never thought I would be in this place, no not by far

I was awakened on this machine that was helping me breath, in this small room in the ER

I really do not try be bad or in the way, I am greatful for what they do for me

So, Mr. policeman, and Ms. Nurse lady, yes there is something else I want to say,

I just want to say to my mommy and daddy, say to them, I am sorry.
