Yo Soy Yo

By Gaby Palafox- Garcia

 

I am proud to be

HISPANIC

 

I am a child who

got the chance

to have papers

 

My parents,

 

they don’t have

that privilege or

opportunity

 

Out of all the

things that

have happened

 

Yo soy de Colorado

pero, mi estorya

beine de

Mexico

 

I am from

the ones you

call Mexican

 

I am a Mexican

not

a Mexican’t

 

I am not an it

I am a who

I am a human

Being!

 

You are you

I am me

nobody will

be able to

change that

 

I am unique

 

I will never

change. I

will never try

to change

who I am

unless I want

to

 

I am who I want

to be

 

To be honest

with you,

 

This is who

I am

 

Yo soy Yo
