Jasmine Caudill

602

I am from the cover on my bed, the markings on the wall, fairy tells come true

If you wish hard enough.

I am from dusty shelfs, missing lids, and missing socks.

I am from loud, troubled, insecure, selfish, and bright lights.

I am from the thorns on rose bushes, cherries, and the top of mountain peaks.

I'm from fuzzy hair, loud mouths, and big attitudes.

I'm from Kristy and Jermaine Caudill and Mary Bates.

I'm from a crazy and hectic family.

From life isn't always fair and keep believing.

I'm from believing in dreams and negativity will get you nowhere.

From never judging a book by its cover.

I'm from Georgia, mashed potatoes and peaches.

From Brown and blue eyes.

From brown and blonde long and short hair.

From loved ones and friends that could last a life time.

From the freckles.

I am from the mountains, the stars, the dirt, and the rocks,

I am from those late nights you stay up just to see the stars,

those days you say its ok but you know it's not,

The times you have faced that mountain you can't climb

But you still waste your time to try,

and those times you just laugh instead of cry.
