MY FAMILY

MY FAMILY

Marisol Arreola

10 th Grade • Morton West High School

I love my family This much is true Despite our ups and downs And even when I act the clown They stand by my side always They are my heart They are my soul

This is a truth that will never get old I hold onto so many memories Some good, some bad A cinematic prototype A climactic plot A heroic act A means, to a beginning But never to an end I love my family This much is true

For they are the essence to my being They are the center to my gravity They are the shelter from my storm

I love my family This is true

Because quite frankly, without them I’d be fuckin’, damn blue.
