Belong?
I wanted to have
dreams when I
slept.
I wanted to go
to college.
I wanted to be me
and not them.
Now, I don't want
to dream, to eat,
to sleep, to breathe.
Maybe I'm depressed.
Maybe it's a phase,
a phase I have had
for more than three
thousand days.
If that's the case,
then I wish someone
would show me my place,
where I belong,
if I belong at all.

Moving poem.
We all belong somewhere. Sometimes it's hard to find where we fit. Up until this year I didn't fit anywhere but I have met some amazing people, and they make all the difference. Be you and people will love you for who you are. If people can't handle us as we are then they aren't worth our time.
Someone once told me that trying to be someone else is a waste of who we are. When we're depressed we don't always feel like ourselves, but we're in there somewhere... always.
