I Come From (inspired by Speak, by Laurie Halse Anderson)
I come from a place of sorrow and misery.
I come from a place of sadness and pain.
I com from a place of heartbreak and agony.
I come from a place of broken dreams and loneliness.
I come from a place where I don’t know who I am.
I come from a place where I hide within my self.
I come from a place where all I do is cry.
I come from a place where pain seems like nothing anymore.
I come from a place where I wanna find myself-
but I don’t know how.
I come from a place where nothing matters anymore.
I come from a place where I wanna find me—
but where am I? Where did I go?
I have been missing myself for 14 years.
I wanna be me again.
Help me find myself, please.
