I am from 7 o’clock dinners and 9 o’clock bedtimes.

I am from the same teachers to ugly uniforms.ou

I am from R&B music and books being read till dawn.

Loud gospel hymns and early Sunday mornings is where I am from.

Where I am from is judgemental thoughts and hateful glares.

I am from fake friends and monthly ends.

Petty fights and stupid arguments is where I am from.

Street Light curfews and annoyings siblings is where I am from.

I am from cremation services to memorial services.

Am I really from a place where child after child lie dead in the streets?

I guess I am from a place of immature conviction.

Where I come from is failure of success

Where I am from is not being diverse of different personnels

Where I’m from is blending in with the WANTEDS unwanted.

Charter to Public.

I am from the seemings of reality

to be with society coated with the wrong apology.

Where I am from is bleeding red and screaming bloody murder for help!

I am from a block, figure, and people of disaster!

……..

I love, pray, and cry.

Where I am from has the greatest worst memories of my life.

It’s time,

Cut the strings.
