What inspired me to write this poem is that Ja-Brina is my real name, and Brina and Mina is what everyone else call me. So know as I just turned 16 years old I started in a diary to tell my story and what I do day in and day out with my life. The Ja-Brina part is tell that my name is unique, when I was born, that I’m smart, and a happy person.
The Brina part is telling you that I was scared to come to high school and that I’m a cry baby. And it also tells you that I was happy I made it. Grade wise. The last part Mina it tells you a story about my personal life the nickname Mina came from when I was little I came up with it myself. It tells you how sometimes I tend to not put myself first. And how I cried because, someone was not there for me.
