My words are like a knife in my heart

I cannot speak well

For I mumble and stutter

I skip on letters

And I fail to say words

I can't say my name without

Repeating myself

Writing it out

Or having someone else say it

People think I have an ascent

I don't at all

They say I'm from New Jersey

I don't even live close to that state

I say stupid things

People look at me like I have a mental problem

I have no grammar

I try to explain but no one understands

If I only could speak

Or shut up completely

I would be loved
