Where I’m from
I am from a place that doesn’t even exist, where you can smell the wind,
where you can see the elements of earth
I am from my dreams where I feel like a damn queen
covered in roses and silk running through an endless forest
I am the queen of earth, made from this only element
I am from two lights who belong to two lovely souls
I am from my grandparents
I am their smile, I am their stories, I am the walks through nature,
the rare trips we made
I can still smell the self-made cakes in the air, feel the love I felt,
the freedom I gained
I am from the tears I cry whenever I feel lost in this whole paradise,
whenever I feel alone with everyone by my side
I am from trails I collected all my life
I am my past and I am my future
I am from strength I gained through all my falls,
I am from love I gained through all laughters
I am someone who believes we are all sisters and brothers
