Detroit is my city
September 26, 2019
Detroit is my home
It’s where I learned to walk
It’s where I said my first words
It’s where I learned to read
Where I spend my whole life
Where I met friends
Where I lost friends
Where I got my first pet
Where I found what music I like
Where I found my first love
It’s where I found new things
Where I learned from my mistakes
Where I learned to love myself
Where I love the smell of the water
Where I lost people
Where I lost myself
Where I moved around
Did I miss my old town?
Where I learned poetry
It’s where I found what I love
It’s where I found people I love
It’s where I found you
It’s where I found myself
Detroit is my home

This piece is about where I grew up and how I grew up. It was very funny to remember all the things I did before.
