Author's Note: This poem was greatly inspired by the anime "Fruits Basket". If you haven't seen it, I extremely recommend seeing it. By far, it has now joined my list of favorite anime. I feel this is somewhat of the theme threaded within its beautiful and wondrous storyline, so please read and I hope you enjoy it.
Always…You Shall Belong
By: Lauren
Aren't we always looking for it?
The place where we will belong…
Will we ever find it?
We look and look and look
Always walking forward
Even if times are sad…even if things hurt…
You keep walking forward
Why? Do you ever wonder why?
I wonder, so often, I wonder
But if you have legs, it is a shame to let them go to waste
Keep on walking, always, keep on walking
Keep on looking
Look for the place where you belong
Because once you find it, it'll be the greatest
It might be a physical place
Or it might be found within a person
Who knows- it's different for everybody
Walk forward, walk away- you must walk
You are…alive
Even if you might die…at this very moment…
You are
Alive
Live
You must live…
Find the place you belong…
I wish with every being of me
Be just like who you are
Be who you are
Accept the good with the bad
And you'll find someone who will accept both too
You'll find them
You'll find someday the place you belong
Because I want to believe
I want to believe…
Always… b e l i e v e
It's what you'll always have
Never forget
Never regret
Never stop living
Never stop looking
Never stop believing
Always
Always
You'll always have someone
You'll always have yourself
You'll always have faith
You'll always have lifeYou'll always have belief
You'll a l w a y s have a place where you belong…
