take a look on my side

December 9, 2008

i am from wild horses to a trampoline
from behind the stores to fake limousines
from red mesa to black crows in the light blue sky
from young people lying and old peoople dying

i am from emo posters to heavy metal music
from a big screen t.v to teen magazines
from the walls painted purple to the doors locked
from the cold floor to a warm soft bed

i am from himming birds to the beat of hte heart
from the silent wind to a gesturing harp
from the garden to picking weeds
from the shiny sun to the midnight moon

i am from seperated parents with different families
from house to house with no one to see
from travling back and fourth just to see my families
from loving parents except for me
i am from family photos to new ones today
from the state fair to hip hip hooray
from the mall with my friends to hot topic
from home is where all my memories are to live

i am from "TURN THAT MUSIC DOWN"
from "PICK UP THE TRASH"
from "CLEAN THE HOUSE"
from "DO THE DISHES"
