I am from my church camp

Going there every summer making new friends

To the feeling  of knowing your not alone in your struggle

Lastly to feeling like you know yourself when coming home


I am from my Caroline, Addy, and Kaydence 

They allow me to be myself

And I never have to worry about them judging 

They make me be who I want to be


I am from my dog

From seeing the dark brown to the light brown on him

I can cry to him and know he won't leave me

Coming home after a ruff day knowing he will always like me


I am from the music I listen to

From Zach Bryn to Sam Barber

They make me feel that they've gone through the same thing as me

To them making me believe in myself and that I can do anything


I am from my teachers

Not the ones that tear me down but the one that build me up

The ones that take the time to listen

And the ones that plays music 


I am from volleyball

That gives me a place to reset

A place I go to, to forget everything

And to let my mind be free


I am from my guitar

To allow me to play what I am feeling 

And to feel the scratch marks on the guitar

To allow me to feel what I am feeling 


I am from pumpkin 

The best time of year is here

Tasting it melting on my mouth 

And smelling it everywhere I go

 

I am from volleyball  

I can be Brave as a lion.

And The feel of getting a dig.

Lets me be confident 

 

I am from my heart breaks

the pain hurt but

taught me how to let go

and know new thing will come

 

I am from my struggles

from the girls who bullied me

gave me strength

And made me who I am
