Writings
Searching for belonging
Isn’t that something we all do?
It’s that one big thing
That means it not just you
To belong to people you love
Or to a God somewhere far above
Perhaps to a group of friends or a good mate
To someone to whom you relate
To find belonging is also an answer to why you are here
Knowing what and who you’re living for in this atmosphere
Belonging will make you feel that you’...
A pair of arms that will bind around your frame tighter and caulk the windowed ribs
adding an extra layer of protection for your vibrating heart
when the storms roll in
threatening security
Not a pair of arms that writhes and pushes
and rather sink into the black
blind and helpless
fucked raw with lightening
than reach for the tattered raft
The eye of the storm forms in the mind
A state of em...
What does it mean to belong?
I often wonder what it feels like
To fit in, to be wanted
To be heard
To have other people believe in me
To stand up for me
And care for me
Who want to be around me
To find people that will listen
To what I have to say
Who _want_ to hear what I have to say
So I will not be ignored
Not someone who pretends
Pretends to listen
Pretends to to care
Pretends to be a fri...
Crowds make me nervous
They make me feel like I don’t have a purpose
I feel like the thorns on roses
Not knowing when the door closes
The sidekick in a film
Nothing more than a friend for the thrill
How do I change this feeling of meekness
This might be my most vital weakness
What does everyone else do to belong
And why can I not harmonize to their song
I do everything I can and try
To no...
What does “fitting in” mean
It seems like when you “fit in”
Your the same as every one else
Acting the same
Dressing the same
Everything the same
I don’t think everyone should be the same person to “fit in”
The point of being your own person is not being someome else
Everyone has some kind of weird thing about them that they don’t tell people
I think to fit in or belong you have to be your...
With you i feel like i belong.
With you i am strong.
With you i live my life to the fullest.
With you i am the purest.
Without you i feel lonely
Without you i feel ghostly.
Without you my hands are tied.
Without you i lose my might.
Together we are complete.
Togethere we are so sweet.
Together we smile.
Together we reach the sky....
Where would I start?
Such a strong sense
Belonging means a lot
That’s why young men join gangs, to belong
Women join prayer groups, to belong
It adds to your identity,
Or does it take away?
I’m not sure
Do you merge with those around you?
Or do you somehow strengthen what’s within you
People in numbers
A tribe if you will
Are you sacrificing individuality
Or are you strengthening your personali...
There’s something about you holding my hand,
Guiding me gently across these rocky lands.
We’ve both known heartbreak, and we’ve both known pain, but with you right beside me, I’ll do love again.
You’re the knight that I needed, letting me finally rest,
When you stand guard, that’s when I see your love best.
You speak so gently, never a raised voice,
You make me realize that I’ve always had a cho...
