I’m from a house where I moved next to my old house,

where kids scream, while throwing tancherums,

I’m from a place where we cannot talk without interruption.

SURVIVOR...

I’m from a hospital with a diagnosis,

a rare, incurable genetic disorder that is in my DNA.

A disorder that lives with me, becomes who I am.

UNIQUE...

I’m the youngest from a family of seven,

fighting for food, attention and love.

Three half siblings and one full, but I love equally.

FAMILY…

I’m from an inside space where I don’t like body,

questioning what people are saying in their minds about me.

Having hair colors to define my mood.

INSECURE...

I’m from a broken life losing a cousin at the age of thirteen,

sadness, denial, and death.

Missing him wishing to turn back time.

UNPREDICTABLE...

I’m from a house with memories filling my brain.

tears, laughter and love.

I’m from a house where I moved next to my house.
