I Am From

by marymoir24

I am from the rolling hills of Scotland, I am from the white sand beaches of Spain, I am from fighting, tears, and divorce, I am from a broken home, I am from vicious custody battles, I am from cross country moves, I am from struggling to make ends meet, I am from second-hand clothes, I am from not enough to eat, I am from battles with depression and anxiety, I am from the pressure from my family, I am from the pressure from myself, It is from all these hardships I have faced that I am from But I am not from a place of giving up
