Where I'm From

I am from memories
From faded and forgotten
I'm from the times I like
(Playing in the yard with my dog)
I'm from the places
Anchorage to Peters Creek
The places that I grew up
And I remeber them as home


I'm from the Forgotten
From the unneeded and unwanted
I'm from the shush ups
And the be quiets
From the please and thank you
I'm from the manners
That my mother taught me
With love and discipline

I'm from games and Anime
Final Fantasy and Inuyasha
From the memories I've lost
To the ones I've gained
To the dad I lost
In my room I have the things that i hold dear
Memories that I am fond of
A mess of things that lay astray
To keep my memories only in my dreams
That slip away from me
Then they quietly fade away
