Ingrid Barbosa – Poem

Inspired by the influence that people have in my life, this poem speaks about my personal experience, and perception of myself. I believe that we all keep something from the people we connect with, and how these interactions and experiences shape who we are and contribute to our personal growth.

I am made of memories.

My body consists of moments

And experiences.

I keep a little piece

Of everyone that I ever met.

Come, stay a while,

Take off your shoes,

Tell me about what worries you.

When you leave, I’ll keep your smile

A new song I never heard,

A new restaurant I have never been.

I hold tight to my roots,

So, I don’t lose myself

Trying to keep something

That never belonged to me.
