Where I'm From
I am from scented oil burners
From Glade candles and candle holders
I am from the small closet room that has a secret back back room.
The faint smell of paint and carpet cleaner.
I am from a red, print, and orange rose bush that's outside my house.
Whose long gone limbs of Lance and Starsha as if there my own.
I'm from the famous double chocolate cake and the "Tolliver's Curse",
From Trina and Edward.
I'm from the Sunday dinners and family gatherings.
From "Get straight A's" to "Just graduate".
I'm from Phenomenal Women, that's me, and seeing a childish boy becoming a man.
I am from "Aweh" and the Cherokee Branch, Chicken and Kool-aid.
From Cancer Survivor and "Marchmadness"
On top of a closet shelf where a picture is stored with accient memories.
Faces never lost but found a better sound.
I am from the insecurities to the name calling and being in a dark place.
I am from a bright place with warming smiles and warm hugs.
From a struggling student to a on track Junior getting ready to become a Senior.
I am from Succes....
