"Your people"
She tells me
My people ?
But I don't have such a thing
As my people
Here and there
No matter where I am
No matter where I go
I am a ghost
Present and not
In betweens
Haunting both worlds
Never fully fitting
Alien
Or alienated ?
Belonging
What does it mean ?
It feels like I've been searching for ages
A place to belong
A home
But they say
You belong where your heart is
But my heart is mine
It belongs to no place
No country
Maybe this is why I am so free
So wild
I belong to myself
To my love
To my strangeness
I belong to my alienness
My oddity
My difference
My weirdness
To me
I am foreign
No matter where I stand
I take this feeling with me
I can't separate it from me
So it must be in me
Like a snake in a cage
I felt trapped all my life
Pushed on the corner
Hidden underground
A wild beast captured
In the dark I dreamt
Dreams of sunny days
Dreams of other worlds
Of finding my people
My place
They couldn't see
How much I grew
Until I outgrew them
All of these spaces
All of these people
I shed my dead old skin
Showing my new self
Changed and grown
