AM I AUTHORIZED?

Am I authorized?
Till the time i was not born with it
a birthright, an inheritance
Even If I was
an abusive father or an alcoholic mother
Am I authorized?

Am I authorized?
till the time its not legit- a legal sign,
a printed paper, a notarized signature
Even if I was
Just a piece of land , shade under a tree, to put my feet in the river
Am I authorized?

Am I authorized?
till the time its not a defined tag, a claimed status
a far away friend, a distant lover
Even if I was
Someone else's best friend, or an already married man
Am I authorized?

Am I authorized?
To call it mine.
