    Where Im From

    I am from the breeze,


    and sunrise till sunset.
    The warm mornings and
    the narrow pathway towards
    the busy city. From quiet nights
    and the rich smell of dark
    coffee freshly made.

    I am from the school across


    the street, the soccer team
    on TV. From the wet
    gloomy days, and the hot
    Jasmine green tea.

    I am from grey windy days,


    and dark sleepless nights.
    From the white shining
    fairy lights hung up on
    the grey ceilings.

    From the ravens crow, to


    purple plum trees and
    dried out plants. With the
    old tree grown by my
    family that will end the same
    as me
