Sometimes, if I think about my life, I cry

People would say my life was good,

when they don't know,

that I'm tired of my family fighting,

of my grandpa hurting my feelings,

when I tell him that I my dad brought me over,

he says "Kabin?",

I say "No, my dad.",

for I'm afraid to say my daddy's name,

because I don't want to hear him say it,

that he's not my dad,

just a fat piece of shit,

because it hurts,

I don't like to think about my grandpa,

pointing guns,

at my momma,

because he's crazy,

and all I write is true,

that sometimes, If I think about my life, I cry...
