Belonging

Where do I belong if not for long?  
 
Who could possibly know?  No. Who could possibly?  Will I live and grow?  
 
Fragile feelings are displayed, dismayed, I say.
 
I will be frank, I am not Frank.  It’s right  in front of your nose as it grows and grows and grows.  
 
Sadly, possibly sad it will end.
 
It’s so easy to expend, letting go of who I am. Who am I?  Who am I?
 
It is not a mystery to be solved.  Mankind has evolved.  
 
Branch out, sing out, funny girl with the curl.
 
It is beyond comprehension,  it is only an extension, an extension.
 
Tell me, is it?  Is it?
 
Solitude is very rude,  I say very, very, rude and crude.
 
Surrounded by the things we know, we know little, don’t you know?
 
Just be happy.  Find a way.  Happiness has gone away, far away.  Not today.  Not today.
 
All in white is such a lie.  How much can your dollar buy?  Good buy?  Goodbye.
 
Think you know it, then  you don’t.  What do you know?  No. No.  You don’t know.
 
Let it go, let it go.  Oh no, oh no, you can’t let go.  Have you lost your soul?
 
Where will you go?  You don’t know?
 
If anyone wants to see, take a picture of what you thought it to be.
 
Let me be. Let me be.
 
Seriously, I am fine.  I let it go.
 
Chose your memories, it’s all you have.  Did you make them good or bad?  Did you?
 
Beautiful girl with bright eyes that shine, you’ll be fine.  You are fine.
 
Keep moving, don’t take one step back.
 
Gentle breezes give me reasons to daydream and forget.
 
There is so much pain.  Am I insane?    No, I guess not.  I guess not.
