I Am From.
I am dust blowing in the wind of change.
I am from Bryon, Karen, Drake and Ellen to Karen, Drake, Ellen and Kathryn to Karen, Ellen and Kathryn.
I am from Daddy how to daddy why to daddy who?
I am from English to English to Latin, Greek and German.
I am from Weed in a frisbee under to couch and Xanex under the mic stand to alcohol is not a drug.
I am from uncooked Ramen noodles and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
I am from homeless shelters to trailer parks to a house but never a home.
I am from the joy of greek and roman mythology and the hatred of biology ii.
I am from Pink Floyd, Metallica, Sublime and Tool to well...Pink Floyd, Metallica, Sublime and Tool.
I am from we're not gonna make it to we didnt make it to whoa! we made it.
I am from saturday morning cartoons to saturday night live.
I am from the 90's and thats where I'll stay to man I miss the 90's.
I am from your gonna go far kid to what happened to her.
I am from garage bands who talk alot to people with talent.
I am from sharp to flat to natural.
I am from love to hate to love.
I am from living for you to I'm not alive.
I am from fearing God to rejecting God to accepting God.
I am from everything anarchy to realizing that I can only change myself.
I am from going crazy feeling trapped to I have found some sort of temporary sanity in this.
I am from hollow thoughts of suicide to dying to live.
I am from belive her, you'll leave her to I'm leaving you all.
I am from sandpaper tears to corrode the filth.
I am from late night talks to Shit! My mom called the cops.
I am from moving to a small town and having no friends to "hey this is my friend Melissa"
I am from not wanting the world to see me because I didnt think that they would understand to disarming you with a smile.
I am from catching to moon to packing up and floating away.
I am from what if? to your not good enough.
I am from "Your my best friend" to "Thank you for showing me that best friends cannot be trusted"
I am from fading to black to sad but true.
I am from dear mother can you hear me crying to dear mother can you hear me laughing.
I am from swallowing my pride so I wont choke on it
I am from never being alone but being alone all the time.
I am from a world of cold and ugly hidden in my words and eyes.
I am from pennyroyal tea to the lake of fire.
I am from digging until I feel something to show me how to get out.
I am from moon dances and subliminal verses.
I am from my name a Borat to I'm Rod I party.
I am from independent films, black coffee and Cigarette smoke.
I am from twisting and turning and breaking the girl.
I am from screaming in silence to figuring out that all my doubts were someone elses point of view.
I am from believing that no one should be left alone to leave me alone.
I am from party on Wayne and Party on Garth to I guess.
I am from scar tissue that I wish you saw.
I am from time wont let me go to time let me go! to time where did you go?
I am from not knowing when mommy is coming home to knowing mommy.
I am from locking the door and throwing away the key to there's someone in my head and its not me.
I am from becoming comfortably numb.
I am from the city of the damned and broken homes.
I am from you dont know what its like, maybe you do, welcome to my life.
-Ellen Griffin.
