Finally Belonging
I come from a broken home,
I've never felt anything like this,
When I'm with you and your family I feel nothing but bliss.
Your family's together under one roof,
My family is broken and miles a part.
The way your little sister looks up to me,
I feel like her big sister,
I want to care for her like a mother,
But play with her like I am her sister.
Your little brother may be obnoxious,
But he's got a good heart,
I always want to hug him,
I want to be his big sister too.
Your mother to me is an angel,
So sweet, kind, and dear,
She reminds me so much of the home I've never had.
Your dad must be the glue,
That keeps your family together,
I can tell he really cares,
And I wonder how that would feel if my dad was the same.
With you… you feel like the dream I could never hold,
Every moment with you too good to be true,
It felt right in your arms always,
Something that I never want to let go.
The moments of belonging I felt,
Was the dream I can never hold,
It felt right in your arms,
But was really too good to be true.
I never realized how much I wanted a family,
A family that was full of love and care,
Forever a dream I can never hold.
It is true that you don't know what you have until you lose it.
I wanted those moments to last forever,
Those continuous feelings of comfort,
Those continuous feelings of love,
Those continuous feelings of care,
And those continuous feelings of acceptance are my dream.
Your family to me is not only a blessing,
But also a gift that can be and has been taken away.
I love you and your family.
How I wish I could stay.
I love you guys and really wish I could be a part of your family.
