Loving not controlling

To be happy is all

that a young girl wants

but some look for happiness

in the worst of places

 

now they do not realize it could be their downfall

for the people out there can hurt them

so they go looking for love

And end with danger and hurt faces

 

so now they do not come to every beck and call

but they stand for themselves and live for themselves 

not commanded by a lover or another

but controlled by herself because she deserves it

 

her partener will love her as she deserves

or she will leave and avoid all the hurt

because she knows that she deserves the best

he is not the only one who can make her heart beat from her chest

Believe in you for it's all that really matters

you need to be strong

before you allow another in

some may twist your brain

to believe what is not true

bit it is you who really knows 

what you need to do

spligw your life as your own

do not follow but lead

be the black sheep in a white flock

who knows that she still belongs

for whenever you feel like fitting in is best

know that you are you

and you deserve respect
