i Am From
I am from sorrow and deception. 
 Words that pour from my lips, 
 Leak onto the pages of others. 
 I am the moon that glows, 
 When the rest of the sky is swallowed in darkness. 
 
 I am from happiness and pride. 
 Laughter echoes the corners of my thoughts, 
 And leaves behind a trace of comfort. 
 I am the Sun that warms the Earth, 
 Leaving the world in awe and wonder. 
 
 I am from love and beauty. 
 Emotions flood my dreams at night, 
 For I have long to learn what love really is. 
 I am a small flower bud, 
 Blooming into an alluring rose. 
 
 I am from a family that will love me forever. 
 “Brothers and sister for life”, 
 And “Baby, you can do anything you set your mind to”. 
 I am a daughter, a sister, 
 And a grand baby. 
 
 I am from the mind of my creator. 
 I was born a child of God, 
 A believer of the impossible. 
 I am on this Earth for a purpose, 
 And I have yet to find out what that purpose is. 
 
 I am from a little old house in the middle of nowhere. 
 From secret recipes tucked away, 
 To ancestors that have done incredible things. 
 I am just one person, 
 In a crowd of millions.
