"Death is just another passage to a new life"


I am soccer in the blazing sun
I am burgers, potatoes, and custard
I am Catawba and Irish mostly, in a middle class neighborhood, with another public school.
I am motocross, violinist, read books everywhere, thinker.
I am a culinary chef on Christmas, while a slave to egg decorating on Easter.
I am “learn everything,” and “never give up.”
I am a singer of my soul and insecurities, a traveler to far away places, and a student with the knowledge of most adults.
I am improvement, quiet, never finished, 100% effort.
I am Tigger, Huck Finn, Hong Kong Phooey, and Al Cabong.
I am kickboxing, motocross in the dirt, faster than all the boys, fighting until the end.
I am a big, crazy family, so distant yet so close.
I am The Strangers, The Ring, and Sweeney Todd.
I am four square, red rover, and catch me if you can.
I am a passion for self expression, learning, and figuring everything out.
I am the stinging yet soothing melody from a guitar.
I am not anybody but myself.
