I am from messy rooms with posters covering every wall
    from staying up until 5 am with friends...
I am from spending my 2012 summer listening to One Direction
    from seeing them live in 2014...

I am from devastating heart attacks
    from the emergency room stays where we prayed...
I am from crying throughout the night when I lost my beloved Grandfather
    from losing my uncle at just 52...

I am from boxes stacked and cluttered with pictures
    from baby books to school projects...
I am from staying with my cousins for New Years
    from the kid wine to the ball dropping…

I am from volleyball
    from tears of not making the team...
I am from the zoo
    from eating mint chocolate chip ice cream by the cows...

I am from long, blonde hair
    from cutting my bangs behind the couch...
I am from dirty black feet on the trampoline
    from witnessing my 4 year old sister break her arm…

I am from we’re going to be late
    from walking into church and feeling everyone’s stares on us...
I am from getting a swimming pool
    from realizing I cringed at the thought of getting wet...

I am from handpainted nails
    from those aren’t real, I don’t believe you...
I am from the happiest place on earth
    from “where dreams come true”...
