A/Ndedicated to @Fat1maa4 for all those nice comments! i always mean to honor those who are super supportive so this was due a long time ago lol


we are composites of what we love

and i am my mother's loving hands

and my father's laughing voice 

and my grandfather's smiling face 

and even though i try to hide my guilt 

i am my grandmother's bouncing curls 


i am stuffed with pages and shreds of books

with head filled with cliches and useless gunk 

my heart is made of warm fall sweaters 

and my ears are filled with unknown artists 

my fingers remember the salt tinged air of the beach

and my eyes are blue with the reflection of the sea

(they are brown). 


and my list could go on and on for i am 

composites of what I love


and for some people what they love is anime

for some people what they love is some different new foreign food

and for some people what they love is flaunting off their body

for some people what they love is covering up 


and for some people what they love is staying home and reflecting and for some people what they love is partying all night and for some people what they love is playing video games and for some people what they love is playing football and for some people what they love is drawing all night and for some people what they love is performing in theater and for some people they like studying and learning and for some people what they love is playing their band instrument and for some people what they love is running their hearts out and for some people they like painting their nails regardless of gender and for some people they like wearing makeup regardless of gender and for some people for some people for some people  - 


for all people we love 

for all people we are what we love 

for all people we are composites of what 

we love and if what we are is what we love

let everyone love what they love and 

let everyone love themselves.
