Where I'm From


I am from the darkness that arose in my father's heart, I am from the pain and misery, Of every human being, I am from the depression, That was once inside your mind, You look at me, I know you do, You don't like me in the least. I am from th evil, That you willing locked away, I am from the suffering in every childs mind, I am like a punching bag, You like to fight and taunt, I'm sick of it, I've had enough, So now i choose to leave. I am from the smile across my mother's face, I am from the love and happiness, Of everyone around me, I am from the little things, That you smile at the most. I come from the laughter, The one inside you heart, I am from the good that lerks within your mind, I'm not a punching bag, Just a simple little kid, I like it here, I love it now, So now i choose to stay.
