THE STORY IN MY HEAD (The Man Sitting In Your Front)

He's not a human being - No, he is less of that
He might've been the one through whose sperm I permeated into my mother's vagina
But would you believe me if I told you that he deflowered his product?
And tags it a righteous conduct

To take a bite of the material to know it's worth
And to be the first person to know what's what and what's not
That man sitting in front of you was the one who's made me a shame
Since Mum caught him on me the second time, life's never remained the same

I can't even call my natal vehicle "Mom"
She'd say "I am not the mother of a whore"
I cannot give birth to a lady
Who's only dream is to give birth as a baby

But what am I to do when that man sitting in front of you caused all these?
I can't even tell you the pain I feel when someone calls me by his last name
I have to hold it in each time, in school I have to be called upon by the teacher with that name while being sane
But to whom am I to explain all these?

That the man you call my Father,
has committed murder
towards myself and my mother,
he's sexed his first daughter
in an attempt to be the first buyer.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
The #TheStoryInMyHead is a compilation of tales that narrate inhumanity and its adverse effects on its victims, something that's been on around the world for too long and has done too much evil to be left alone.

Thank you for your story of a compassionate cry for help to be heard...and validated...not a right to wronged, because it's too late for that. Heard! You are the vessel to share the story...dishearteningly true in many lives, unfortunately...10 for your share. Gio
