I come from
A place that no longer exist
I come from
Pain and confusion
I come from
a relationship that wasn’t meant to be
I come from
Happy moments
I come from
A separated world of real and fake
I come from
A brightly lit stage and a script
I come from
Ribbons of accomplishments
I come from
Facing my fears
I come from
A misfit life
I come from
A river of tears
I come from
A jar of worries
I come from a world where we are judged by everything
