My city is New York

I was born here

I grew up here

I feel as if this city shapes me

It allows me to face all kinds of people

I love everything about this city

I love the diversity

The different races

The different cultures

What I love the most about my city is

how somehow all these races can coexist peacefully

I love that I can walk into class and see the history in the different colored eyes

I love how new Yorkers stand as one

I connect to New York

And to its people
