Where I'm From
I am from a world with no end,
a world where you have to move every year.
I am from a world where I can't get used to the people around me.
I am from the crowded steerts of many U.S cities.
I am from working for what I desire.
I am from a world where you can't walk outsidewithout being scared,
a world where mothers can kill their own flesh,then plead insanity,
a world where justice is rarely served.
I am from a world where students don't care anymore,
where teachers are so resricted to what they teach,
where school budgets determine the quality of educations,
where even teachers fear the taught.
I am from a world where beauty is everything,
a world where people have to look a certain way to be accepted in society,
a world where people are so judgemental that people feel afraid to be themself,
where people are so cruel that others around them feel so inferior that they think they need weapons to protect themselves.
I am from a world where happy ending are elusive.
I am from a world where you have to live in solitude.
I am from places where i am invisible (where I don't matter.)
I am from a world where peace doesn't exist,
a world where war is the first solution to any problem.
I am from a world where death is renewed by life.
I am from a world with no end.
