My Identity

(none fiction)

My name is Nagella Jean-Baptiste
I am from the Caribbean far away
Oh yes! of course I am legal resident in America.
I did not come in the USA illegally.
My childhood was not perfect, but it was fun and funny as can be.
I am close to a midget for  I am 4 Feet. 
My dad gave me my birth name.So yes it is precious to me.
My mother is there but  harderly,people say I look like her, I believe them for l met her.
My older sister, well! she's just being a sister what can I say.
Am I married? No.for I never had my first communion.
But when or if I decide to get married. I know the person I am meant to be with I will do it just for him. Marriage will be well.when I turn 70.
Right now all this don't matter. For what's more important is my son I love so dearly. Bless it be.
