Eagerly I awaited bed time that day, extremely excited for tomorrow, grand dad tucked me in, cozy next to my grand mother, "GoodNight" she said before grand dad said a little prayer, I closed my eyes knowing that when I wake up it's going to be my birthday, I will be turning 5.
Early rise on the 5th of October, happily I jump out of bed, grand mother and grand father singing happy birthday, my uncle the one who made all this happen, with the gifts in his hand, toys, toys, toys, and more toys, so excited, I really miss my uncle Mervyn, he made my childhood fun, taking me to every new movie that came out in the cinema, I remember watching cartoons at the Chatsworth center in my young days, now all that's gone and with not much activities in Chatsworth for the youth, they start to experiment with drugs and all sorts of pills, for them that's the only fun thing to do in Chatsworth and to do other things out of Chatsworth you need money and we come from the sort of life that does not allow us to have money in our hands, money comes money goes, when it goes the problems flow.
I will never forget that birthday, the only one I remember till this day, the memories are embedded in my brain, and it's so precious because it's one of the only few happy moments in my life, I don't think I had another birthday after that, which could replace that one. The cake was a car, it was huge, with liquorice tyres and ice cream coated, green and black in color, it was the most delicious and awesome looking cake I have ever seen, my mum's cousin's where there and everybody was just so so happy, I have pictures of that birthday, I look at it sometimes, just so I can have something to smile about, life has not been so great in this chaotic world, I've Been lost for awhile, contradicting myself on the way, falling rising, learning, that's life we learn from experience and in this world I'm trapped in, experience pays no rewards, money talks, corrupt governments will raise corrupt people.
