I am from the streets where people scream danger
I am from the home that is constantly falling apart
I am from a school that eats, sleeps, and breathes gossip
but in no way does where i’m from define me
I am caring
I am loving
I am strong
but where I’m from definitely does affect me
I am paranoid
I am broken
I am disgusted by what I see
I’m me.
