Where do I belong?

Where do I belong?

A Poem by Just Plain Me
"

I was at homecoming and realized how I don't fit in anywhere really

"

Is there anywhere that I truly belong,
somewhere tha
t I can be free?
I doubt it because I'd probably do it all wrong,
but don't think that will stop me.

With kids I've grown up with my entire life,
I just sit and watch from the outside and wish it wasn't so.
With the family that have raised me, and caused me so much strife,
I watch them like they're part of a show.

Friends that I've known since I was five,
don't really know me anymore.
Friends who I would once risk my life,
look at me like I'm from a different shore.

Family that I used to know my every move,
hardly even know my name.
Family that could get me out of even the deepest groove,
don't realize that nothing is the same.

Is there anywhere that I truly belong,
somewhere I can be free?
I doubt it because I'd probably do it all wrong,
but don't think that will stop me.

Good poem. I can totally relate to your writing. An amazing job really pulled me in.

"Friends that I've known since I was five,
don't really know me anymore."

That's one of the parts that I can mostly relate to. Keep writing! You're doing an awesome job!

Very wistful and sad.
I guess the answer is that you belong to you, and where is inside your soul, if you are alright with yourself and make peace with u, then the rest will follow, we can't look back, but must look ahead because the future is yours and what you make it...............
