Just as a little explanation, at my school we have an outline for a poem called an "I am from" poem and just like the title says, it's a poem about what you are from. What makes you you. This is my attempt at one, so if you guys like it say so. If you don't say so as well.


"I AM FROM" POEM

I am from Bethesda Hospital at 4:06 in the morning.
I am from a mother who wore army boots and a father who traded his dad for me.
I am from playing with Legos in a princess dress.
I am from jumping rope in the rain.
I am from clay-covered clothes after a friendly fight.
I am from tears on my birthday.
I am from a now forbidden house that was my home.
I am from cardboard boxes and packing paper.
They stole my things then spat them out here.
I am from a hard bench at the back of the playground.

I am from observing but not participating.
I am from "You're crazy, kid".
I am from looking at him when he doesn't look at me.
I am from friends I don't quite understand
And friends who forgot me
And friends that don't care.
I am from fear.
I am especially from the hatred I hate to feel.

I am from Not Here,
A place no one knows
But me.
 
Well, it appears no one (minus one person) likes my poetry.

P.S. Sorry for the double post, everyone.
