Where I Come From

I am from where music is my life
Where reality exists only in my head
I am from where emotions cut like a knife
And where I'm uneasily read
Where poetry is my mood ring
Where my future is contemplated
I am from where hurt is what stings
Where freedom is awaited
Where my generation has changed
And our hearts are rearranged
I am from where everything is said and done
Where "How To Love" means something
Where it can only mean one thing
I am from "iReminisce"
Where memory is missed
Where I am writing this
Where judgement persists
Where tomorrow is a broken promise
I am from where this is finished

i love the diction used. really quote beautiful. however, the flow leaves something to be desired. It doesn't have too much of a flow to it, nor does it have a rhyme scheme. I understand why that's why it's called free verse, but you atempted to rhyme and and really wasn't working for me. Lovely idea and imagry! keep writing!
