I was from
     A wealthy family, that could not be happier
     Oblivious to life outside of Hartland, Wisconsin
     A family of five, blindly screaming at each other, sailing the “family affair”

I am from
     A ripped up family, torn apart and blown away
     Opposed to accepting a split family
     A black, four sided room--no windows,  no way out, no life to breathe

I realized I am from
     A set of parents not in love, but in love with their children
     Occurrences of a split family, that transformed the man I am today
     A life where I’m loved

I will be from
     A living family, exploring the mountainous world
     Opening my family to enlightening experiences that change our lives
     A family of five that could not be happier
