Sorry

I am From 

I am from flowy skirts and silent flip-flops

I am from sidewalk games like marbles and fighting fish,

I am from hide-and-seek around our houses with the neighbor kids

When there is so light and it is almost dark when the power goes out at nighttime.

I am from delicious empanadas or coffee for breakfast

I am from noisy streets, with motorcycles outside my window

I am from church visits with my grandma, in our dresses every night.

I am from juicy mangoes in the afternoon.

I am from feeling amazing, free, excited because

I am from a place where I belong.

Present

Today I am  sad

Today I am in  Boston 

Today I am in my bed room a lot 

Today I am!

Future

Dear Future Yeisi,

In 10 years from  now I hope you have graduated from college and you are living in your own  house. I hope you are feeling amazing about what you have accomplished. I want you to have a very good job and maybe the owner of any business.
