I Am From...

I am from an origin unknown

From Marion, Ohio

I am from a man and a woman

His name unknown, her face unknown

I am from separation beyond birth

And adoption from a family just as bad


I am from a man and a woman

His name Link and her name Melinda

I am from separation from adoption

Never having two parents at once

I am from several siblings

None sharing a mother


I am from fists flying

And desks thrown across the room

I am from anger issues

And only now I realize why

I am from misunderstanding

Never knowing what's going on at home


I am from nomadic friendships

Never knowing who truly cares

I am from finally finding family

At least, that's what I thought

I'll only ever have one true friend

And I could only hope she feels the same


I am from not caring for consequence

Who I hurt, it matters not

I am from hiding myself from those closest

Wearing a mask that even I believe

I am from fearing for the future

Because of what happened in the past
