I Feel Like I Belong

Meeting old friends...

I want to go back
Back to where I belong
I’ve been too far away
For far too long.

Seeing their faces
So close up again
Brings back many memories
A bitter-sweet pain.

Remembering what was
And what could’ve been
The plans that we made
The dreams we dared to dream.

Secrets we never knew,
Tales retold in person,
The fake smile on my face
Learning of her love for him.

And now he comes up to me
No feelings ever completely go away
His hug meant the world just then
I wouldn’t want it any other way.
I guess…

No matter where we are together
With them I feel at home,
No matter the distance between us
With them I feel like I belong.
