i am mexican

I am Mexican
I wonder if Obama is going to end the war in Iraq
I hear crying
I see my grandpa
I want to follow his foot steps and join the marine corps
I’m a Mexican
I pretended to be someone I wasn’t
I feel nothing
I wonder if I’m going to see my mom and dad in the morning
I worry when I think of death
I am Mexican
I under stand that we live and we die
I say that i9m going to join the marine corps
I dream of all the good times that I’ve had with my family
I try to be a better person
I hope my dad will make it back alive from Iraq
I am mexican
