i forgive you poem #7
10 years ago
General
Dear the people who have hurt me
i forgive you
from my earliest memory ever since i was 3 i have been shunned and judged
on the way i looked, acted,talked, and dresses
i remember only seeing the face of judgment on yours on sadness on mine
i only remember that when i was little that no one would stick up for the kid who wore girl shirts or talked like they were one
it was not my fault that i am feminine but was my fault was your words getting to me
i remember one day when i was 12 i wanted to end everything so i grabbed a knife and put it against my stomach but i could not do it
i remember when i was 13 i got so sad because my name at school was girl-boy
so i grabbed a hair pin and scratched a smiles into my stomach because if i always had a fake smile on my face why not have it on the rest of my body match
i remember the way you used to hate me for having a different orientation and i used to just cry and cry because i had no one
i remember the day i looked at my body and saw why people saw me as a girl so i decided to get rid of it
and by get rid of it meant to get rid of my body so i stopped eating
i remember waking up every day with a new bruise or scare on my body
i remember most of those scars were from me
but i also remember the people that has helped me in my life
i remember my friends who used to help me get through everything
i remember how they kept all the knifes and hairpins away and instead gave me a note book and a pen
i remember how they said that i would be ok
so that is why i forgive you i forgive you because i have my friends that will always be there and if you ever call me girl-boy again you will just add to the list of people that i have to forgive.
