Somewhere I belong

Trying to work out where I went wrong,
Searching for somewhere I belong,

Get in my car and drive for miles,
They'll soon come looking after a while

Not sure how much more I can hack
I cant wait to get my life back on track

Sick of feeling like I don't fit
But I'm too strong to let myself quit

So ill act like I'm fine when I get home tonight
I'll smile, make small talk and be polite

If only they saw me when the door has closed
it takes all my strength to stay composed

So ill keep looking forward, it won't be long
Until I find somewhere I belong

Author's Note

Short rhyming poem about my current feelings.

It can be very hard and very soul destroying to keep up an act - to wear the mask for everyone day after day and then flop out exhausted when we get home and cry with the world is locked outside. We require a balance - it may be that we need to start to say no to people who take advantage of us or just have more me time doing things we enjoy - even get a new circle of friends who will accept you for YOU.
Writing is one outlet and I for one am glad you write.

I definitely have let people take advantage which is why I am in such a mess with my life, I've kept my act on for 7 months that I am ok and nearly drove myself crazy in the process but now I'm regaining strength and because I didn't falter or let anyone know I feel quite proud I survived although I wish I had the strength to admit my feelings I still feel strong for not doing so if that makes sense. Thanks for your comments

Life is going to get harder as you go so don't give up, and great job on the poem.
