I am from long airplane rides from east to west,

Moving place to place. 

I am from staying in one place finally in one place for years. 

I am from taking pictures of a house that used to ours…

Crying

Tears falling

Deep

Into the pool I learned to swim in that was not to see again…

Biking… In the rain. 

The adrenaline as I go down the steepest hill with no hands

The moist rainy air brushes against my face…

Flying on tall large metal boxes that float in the sky

 I am from traveling from north to south and east to west.
