Why do I feel so useless with no one by my side?
I don't understand why I base my worth on another,
Letting someone else determine my stride,
Living my life according to some other.
What power does love give me?
I don't understand why I don't feel whole on my own feet,
Feeling like without a love I just can't be,
Giving up on me and admitting defeat.
Why do I sit alone and wonder what if?
Letting another day pass by without taking a chance,
Feeling like with any move I'll fall off an unknown cliff,
Cowering in my skin never taking a confident stance.
What makes me feel this way?
One day I'd like to feel happy being me,
Knowing that if I have to be alone I'll be okay,
Hope that one day these things I will see.
