I remember about my past.

my childhood.

it wasn’t good.

It was actually a nightmare.

dark

scary

sad.

I remember a time when I had freedom. Maybe

not freedom, but choices. I could

choose my friends. I could choose

what I wanted to wear. The freedom

to say no, when I didn’t want to do

something.

I lost my favorite cousin

he was at a gas station getting gas

with his daughter

and his daughter’s mother

and someone ran over

and shot him.

freedom’s important

I see very clearly now

the great open space

it’s not much to some people

but to me it’s...everything.
