Where Do I Belong ?

Where do I belong my friend ?
Whether in this world or the other ?
Whether in the world of geniuses or fools;
whether in the world of creativity or simply
 Machine and tools ?

Whether I had come from the world
of beautiful flowers and fairies ?
Or whether I am a page
from the demon's diaries ?

Whether I had come to make
others happy or sad ?
I wonder if, on seeing me,
My family was only too glad !!

whether I was a good child,
Always obedient and never complaining?
Or whether I was devilish,
Breaking into other's gardens,
And caught stealing ?

Whether I was an aimless teenager,
Trying her hands at everything ?
Or whether I was rock-solid determined
From the very beginning ?

Whether I was a romantic when I grew up
and found love in everyone ?
Or whether I was a loner
Never loved by anyone ?

My memories are fading,
My vision is going blur.
Tell me, my friend, tell me soon
For I have but little time.
Whether I belong to this world, or the other ?

Who was I ?
what was I and where ?
Please hear me, please answer.
Before I die and can no more hear,
Please tell me O friend,
Whether I belong to this world ?
Or the other...

A lovely write.Wonderful thoughts, very well expressed! I like the last three lines in the first para "Whether in the world of geniuses or fools/ Whether in the world of creativity or simply/Machine and tools" You have also managed to rhyme the poem well.
A very interesting read.Very well done!!!

I hope you find your answers, but for now I will just say, you belong in this world honey with both the demons and the fairies. Life will never come as white or black, it will be different shades all over. I think this is your best poem so far.
