Where Im From

I am from headphones,
From Nike shoes,
I am from small homes.
I am from the trees,
And the orchids.

I am from the Hobos Caf and the love,
From Andres and londono and Gonzales.
I am from cancer and miracles,
From family and respect.
I am from faith, passion, values.
I am from Manizales, Oreos, and Arequipe.
From long complicated stories,
Tears and laughter.

From sunsets, long car rides,
The car stereo, big noses,
Horrible voices, and hug smiles,
I am from hidden caves, holes in walls,
Under pillows, frames, and books.
I am from home
