Everyone should live their life as a model for others.


I am from chocolate,
From apples and oranges
I am from reading and
Drawing on paper
I’m from alternative
Rock and pop
I am from blowing out
The candles on a
Birthday cake.
I am from Brianna and
Hope whom I am still
In contact with
I am from the slick feeling
Of silk and the fragrance
Of beautiful roses
I’m from cotton balls and
Dreams
I’m from the rosebush and
The dogwood in my front yard
I’m from “Duck Duck Goose” and
“Hide and Seek”
I’m from Patsy’s 14th birthday party
And the summer vacation of 2005
I am from my Aunt Becky’s death
And my dog Lilly’s death
I am from my Beta induction ceremony
And my Grandfather going legally blind in one eye
I am from “all good things come to an end”

I was writing this one day because i got bored and this is what came out. My mom read and cried so I hope you like this piece too. I took me a couple of hours to write it so it took some time.

Plain being, Boring middle, but Heyy EPIC ending, the ending was sad and touching, It seemed playful, when you said "Hide and Seek" lol, I love the way I can agree and understand the ending in more than one way, Absolutely beautiful, The beginning and ending need a me poetic tone !
