By Zahra Arshad


Know where you belong

Know in your heart

Know right from wrong

Know yourself


This feeling doesn’t feel right to me

A place to stay

Always feeling never ending

A place to go

My never ending memory

A place to run

A perfect melody for my song

A place to fly


If I’m making a wrong choice

Will you be there to help me choose?

If I’m crying

Will you help me dry these tears?


Knowing I can lean on you

Have you waiting

Have someone watching over me

Someone always there waiting for me


This feeling doesn’t feel right to me

A place to stay

Always feeling never ending

A place to go

My never ending memory

A place to run

A perfect melody for my song

A place to fly


Be nice to know

Who stands by me?

Be nice to know

Who likes me so?


Zahra is currently studying film and media studies at Manchester Met. When not attending lectures, she likes listening to music, reading and writing.
