I'm a combination of all the people I've met
and all that I've experienced.
Inside, I hold the laughter of my friends,
the arguments of my parents,
the wondering of small children,
and the warmth of kind strangers.
I am embellished with stitches from broken hearts,
bitter thoughts of the lost and broken,
and the playlists you cry to at 3 am.
My bones are cut from words and steel.
My veins flow with the dreams of visionaries.
I am made from all those people and all those moments.
That is who I am.
