Where I’m From Makes Me Who I Am

I am from the dirt everyone walks among
or is it the hopes and dreams that go wrong?
I am from that sound of water falling
and the laughter following.
I am from the darkness where light doesn’t shine on this earth
or is it the light that does not glisten even worth showing?

I’m from the place I know - Waukesha, Oconomowoc, Pewaukee, and Hartland.
The places that know me more than my parents.
I’m from the time of 1998, September and my birth number is 14.
The day that knows me more than myself.
I’m from the family of O’connor and the family of Dolensek,
The families that raised me to be who I am.

From the sound of the drum beat that I play.
the beat is like the hum of my guitar.
From my free time spent on drawing cars,
rather the real work I do on rare and collectible cars.
From those nights that have my mind roaming ,
or are they my hopes and dreams that are going?
