I am from a house with many relatives
I am from pajama shirts with cool cartoons.
I am from getting goose bumps from reading my favorite book,
but watching "Beavis and Butthead" cheered me up.
I am from nights eating tacos while watching television.
I am from mornings eating sausage, eggs, and pancakes.
I am from sleeping in my favorite suit,
which get me in trouble if you know what I mean.
I am from moving away towards an apartment.
I am from laughing it up with my mom.

I am from getting older and learning new things.
I am from playing sports with my father
I am from having no friends in sight.
I am from friends I can't believe how much they accepted me.
I am from having fun with my "Bop it" and "Beyblade."
i am from a house filled with kids playing the "Nintendo."
I am from a mother looking out for me.
I am from a mother who supports what I do.

I am from changing from an apartment to a house.
I am from a father who helps me with sports.
I am from some town called South Plainfield.
I am from groups of eighth graders accepting me,
but these weren't my best friends.
I am from a little guy becoming my friend.
I am from a graduation gifts I'm never going to forget.

I am from precious memories.
I am from memories I can't keep inside.
I am from many memories helping me cope with high school.
I am from older students.
I am from my dreams still being unclear.
