I am from Morning to Night the city that never sleeps
I am from the MTA 6 line
I am from playing tag at parties
I am from volunteering and making jokes
I am from the Big CD binger
I am from playing Mario Kart with my siblings
I am from the walks in Central Park
I am from the loud cars passing by on the FDR Drive
I am from the big photo book full of baby photos
I am from concha’s and hot chocolate on the cold nights
