WHERE DO I BELONG?

ok...it is a bit of a sing song poem... but that was the intent

WHERE DO I BELONG

 

Where Do I Belong? is the name of this song

Though I have no intent to start singing

I know its not here, I can’t live in fear

Of the distress my lover keeps bringing

 

The choices I’ve made, past plans left un-layed

Paved the road on which I am standing

I’m here in this place, a scowl on my face

With this burden that’s too demanding

 

Aimless thoughts abound, feet nailed to the ground

Yet I never felt the hammer striking

Can’t move but can’t stay, please show me the way

To a corner more to my liking

 

A box made of tin, four walls closing in

I’m compressed till I feel like popping

Friendless and alone, with no one to phone

Or come with me as I go shopping

 

Am I forgotten, or thought of often

Pointless questions posed ever so fleeting

Lost friends I once had, make me feel sad

For I miss them and miss their greeting

 

One day that’s for sure, a heart that is pure

Will desire me in spite of this ranting

Then grab me and say, “Come let’s get away”

And I’ll run to them breathless and panting

Sing song poems can be so lighthearted yet you bring a lilt of sadness to this... but still leave us with a melody of hope in the end...wonderful write, Roger...always a delight to read your work.
