Belonging

We are always trying to fit in
Always searching for the right friends,
The right things to do,
The smart decision,
Even that special someone.
No matter what
We are just trying to make a name for ourselves
Just for we can belong.
Belonging in this world is not what we need.
We need to find acceptance in ourselves
Before we can accomplish anything else,
Because once that happens
Everything else falls into place.
You accept yourself
Then you're comfortable with the rest of the world.
You're not afraid of being yourself.
Finally you will realize
I accept myself,
And that I am who I am for me,
Not for anyone else,
And that I will finally belong.
