Owned by myself. (Poetry)

I belong to my darkness

             I belong to my light

                         I belong to my secrets 

   I don't belong to the outside


I belong to my body

      I belong to myself

   I don't belong to anybody else


I belong to my lies 

                                   I belong to my tears 

              I belong to my laugh

                               I belong to the sea


I belong to my heart

                    to this blood

          to this fire and heat


   I own this skin

I own this bag of meat

         this bones

               and every inch

          of me


Even in hell and heaven

       I know I am free

                                    to fly

                                            to see


To believe in everything

                                        or nothing

                 To know how it feels


              to be loved

                         to be healed

    I belong, I belong, I belong! I don't belong.
    I belong, I belong, I belong! I don't belong.
    I belong, I belong, I belong! I don't belong.
    to my heart, to this blood. I don't belong.
    I own, I own, I own! I believe!
    I know.

      Lovely poetry @agnikana. Enjoy my amateur reply.

      I see you free,
      Fleeing fear, fleeing pain.
      You belong to yourself,
      To your dreams, to those bags of bones
      That contain your whole.

      I want to be free,
      To belong to me.
      I want to fly,
      To taste of the sky.
      But I belong to you,
      For you see all of me.

      When I find the truth
      And hold it like so,
      Then I will find me,
      And be free indeed.

      For you see all of me."

        I belong to the long gone longing for belonging. Such is this, as I am a paradox.
