Growing up without a family, growing up abused
a young black child in the Cleveland ghetto
Beat, intimidated, sexually exploited.
Having lost one’s best friend to a bullet,
Virgin, pure, honest, fundamentally kind
Finding love as a son by to kind navy shrink
Finding a good hearted woman,
And finally finding lost relatives who welcome you.
Deep, touching, it could have been any one of us
The movie, impeccably made, directed, and acted.
