I Am From
A place that never sleeps
A place that is busy all the time
A place with millions of people crowded together
A place that has different roads that you can take
A place that is always a wake
A place that is known as the big apple
A place that is a part of a puzzle
A land with tall buildings that reach the sky
A land where you can find anything you need to stay a live
A land that is just not an image but what you see with your eyes
A land with traffic (cars, train, bus, trucks and human)
A land where safety is concerned
A land that people come to see
A land as beautiful as gold glowing in the dark
I am from
A city full of many fascinating things to see
Statue of Liberty
Empire State Building
World Trade Center
Times Square
Five boroughs (Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, Bronx and Staten Island)
Many other traditional places
I am from
All sources of feelings that words can’t describe
Beauty that is unforgettable
What is right and
What is wrong
What I call paradise
Streets that is full of cruelness
But there will be a change in the future ahead
I am from
Where I have freedom and peace
Where I can be myself
Where I could make my dream reality
Where I could make my own choices
Where I am treated just like any others
Where I can stand up and speak up
Where I am not alone
I am from
All weather (fall, winter, spring and summer)
Bodies of blue water around me
Blue skies on top of me
Both bright and dark
Hot and cold
Big and small
Less green but mixed of many other colors
I am from
Music that open my ears
Holidays that has special meanings
Excitement and sadness
Knowledge that determines my future
Sports of all kinds that gives me energy
The point of view of the shadow
A planet that has a life but on the special part of it
I am from
The place with all source of attitude
The place many people want to be in
The place where it takes hard work to earn something
The place where any problems can be solved
The place with special meaning to it
The place that has violence, gangs, drugs and weapons
The place with all types of people and race
I am from
New York city, USA
My past, present and the future
My passion
My liberty
My love
My respect
My city and I am proud to live in it
