BELONG

Between the noise of becoming and the silence of now,
Every heartbeat asks the same small question: am I enough?
Light gathers in the cracks I tried to hide,
Offering proof that broken things still shine.
Not every journey is forward  some lead gently inward,
Guiding me back to the place where I’ve always belonged.

Hey guys ! This little poem is written as an acrostic if you read the first letters of each line from top to bottom, they spell the title. But more than rules or structure, this piece is really about feeling. It’s about identity, about wondering where you fit, and about slowly realizing that you don’t have to change yourself to belong. Read it like a quiet conversation , the kind you have with yourself when the world gets loud. And if any line feels like it understands you a little, hold onto it. That’s enough.
