Where I'm From





Where I'm From

I am from open land and open sky
where both find harmony with one another.
Where the wind freely travels and swirl and stirs
 painting the sky with a hazy grey-brown.
I am from a life that has know struggle 
and a life of plenty. 
Beginning in a home where shouts had brought tears
and where silence brought fear. 
Where bottles changed the man I called "dad".
That all is behind me now. 
Forgiveness and redemption have reclaimed that pain
and given me a new path to travel down.
