I am from the splintery wood

That jabed into my skin

When I climbed the tree

Looking down at green grass and 

A Circular trampoline


I am from the swing that hung under my favorite tree

I am from the glass that shattered

When smoke filled my home


I am from the red and blue lights 

That filled my eyes as I watched my father

Leave in the night.


I am from a family of what i call heros


I am from long roads and 

Connected sidewalks 


I am from a small town 

Where everyone knew everyone 

A place I use to call home
