I hate my full name because it wasn't said with care
''Jennifer''

Written by Jenni Bailey


''Jennifer'' is my full name
For me, it holds heavy shame
My Dad is the only one
Who can get it done

My Dad doesn't say it with care
I just stand there
In a tiny voice, I say, ''yes?''
He says it with such a mess

''Jennifer'' is a name a parent is suppose to cherish
I've needed ''Jennifer'' to parish
My name is Jenni now
It hurts to know what ''Jennifer'' is all about
