May 2014
i am from under the car in the backyard
playing tea party
i am from the naps with bug pillow at Nana and Papa's house
and from the excitement in my voice
and thought i found a money tree
i am from making secret recipes
with my sister before she when to visit her dad
i am from sunsets at the beach
while sitting on warm sand eating a cupcake
from going downtown with my sisters
from water balloon fights in the backyard
i am from making forts in Minnesota
and throwing rotten apples at each other
boys against girls
i am from old memories with two brothers and two sisters
from vacations with sand and snow
i am from lost family members and tragic events
from substance abuse and depression
long sad nights alone and thinking i was on my own
i am from the best of the best and the worst of the worst
