She was so afraid
that when he left
he'd find someone new
Someone different
and not like her
and completely out of the blue
So she had to become
this girl that was different
so he'd want to have her back
Never thinking that maybe
he would have come back anyway
despite the differences she might lack
Or maybe he shared
the same insecurities that she did
and changed himself for her sake
So they'd both be different
and not like they'd left things
little change here and there give or take
Or what if she'd changed
and he stayed the same
yet didn't want her still
What else was she left with
but a reflection she didn't recognize
and a broken heart that would never heal
