Spoken Word Poetry

Hello,
Its really me. I know I haven't been so active, but its because I like to read more than I like to write on this website. I took a look back at some of the things I wrote on here and I really cringed.I wanted to show you something new.
So in school we are doing something called spoken word poetry in which we make a poem (that usually revolves around ourselves) and perform it to other people. I finished my poem yesterday and I was thinking maybe I should put it up. So here it is enjoy!

Hi
My name is expensive.
Not the word 'expensive'; just expensive in itself.
Which is ironic since I like the simple things in life.
I'm proud of all the colors that I come from.
All the red, yellows, blues, and whites.
I like to smile and laugh.
My soul brightens every time I manage to make others smile or laugh. It gives me a sense of peace and accomplishment.
I'm fascinated with death.
It reminds me that I should live every moment to the fullest, to appreciate every little moment in life.
Which is why I tell my friends:
"Hug me as if its the last time you'll ever see me"
Music is my muse.
I grew up with it.
From the lullaby's that my mom used to sing to cancioncitas de amor.
I'm 16 and a half and I've never had my first kiss.
I show it off like its a title that I won. One that can't be seen with your eyes.
I've been called terrific, intelligent, funny, fascinating, awesome, nice and youthful.
The beginning of each adjective spells out my name, and it sums up who I am.
