Where I’m from

I'm from a street where there is hurt
But no comfort to be found
I'm from a path where there is no such thing as hope
I'm from crossroads that dont know where they'll take me in life
I'm from a lane where redemption never reaches me
I'm from a home where there is rivalry but no peace
I'm from a world where there is hate but no love
I'm from a color that only brings shame to me
I'm from a cloud where noone notices if it disappears
I'm from trauma that leads me to my past 
I'm from rejection when I need acceptance
 I'm from fear when I think about my future
I'm from an orphan heart who doesnt even know who she is
I'm from somewhere in the middle of nowhere
