Belonging

Belonging
By: Ann M. Hampton

I don't belong here.
I don't belong anywhere.
At least, this is how I feel.
After all this time, you decided our love wasn't real.

I don't know how to feel.
I don't know where I belong.
You've made it clear to me,
And I've known it all along.

I know I rush into things,
But when you've found "the one,"
You can't help but want to see
The love you think was truely meant to be.

I hear your voice in my dreams at night,
And because you're not here,
I grab my pillow 
And hold it tight.

I cry tears wishing you were here.
I've fallen like you wouldn't believe,
For it is beyond comprehension;
It is so hard to conceive.

So since you've made it clear to me
This is how you feel,
I've decided not to come and see you until
You decide our love could one day be real.

I hope you understand.
My broken and bruised heart
And this distance between us
Is tearing me apart.

From the bottom of my heart,
I still love you and
Hope you still love me,
For it will give me a sense of belonging
And belonging is what I need.

Reason for writing:

    Trying to belong somewhere in life. Trying to figure out where I belong while living through a divorce.
