i, am

I am, an immigrant who came to this country

to live a better life, I did not came to be ridicled for being

a different race as others. I get made fun of for not speaking

this language as good as others

but sorry it's just not who I am.

 

I am someone who lives with a constant fear

of seeing my family get separated by people who don't

want us to make a living here because

"this isn't where we belong"

 

I am someone who to get what I want I have to work twice as hard as many people my age.

I gladly grew up to a society where we don't give up, we

keep on bringing ourselves up and make our mistakes

a lesson.
