Where I’m From

I'm from life struggles and grateful moments

Sacrifice of a mundane life along with the pride of the military

Different climates: immensely colorful skies, starry skies, sunsets, then sunrises, full moons, colorful moons, time freezing scenes;

the things I remember most

Being close to nature; a perspective I could never get in another circumstance

Events of reality that have allowed me to mature at an unusually fast rate even though I am, for the most part, immature:

Immersing myself in fantasy to drown out the real world

Developing the desire to be succesful in life; independant

Finally coming out socially and cherishing friends that cared about me first; showed me how to care

Present times that I know I will miss farther down the road:

Amazing school community that has greatly influenced my character; wouldn't be the same without having experienced this

So grateful for these times

Learning to make beautiful sounds; developing passions and the greatest of bonds; making another family

Dark stadiums where we anticipate the guarenteed accomplishments of our never-ending work

More skies in October as we effortlessly march, creating beautiful shapes

Braving to ask the one who cares about me to be with me

Growing and feeling loved everyday

Being alone and feeling the happest I've ever felt before, forgetting all my problems in that moment

Helping through hard times with family; helping me become independant

Dark nights in the unusual warm winter where we both try to be ourselves; afraid of losing each other, but both planning to stay with each other

Changing me and my hesitant perspective of the future
