Learn To Stand Alone

[Velvet Paws]

I watch so many desperately running
chasing after someone
anyone
For to be alone for them they won't do
They fail to see to be worthy of the one worth having
so must they be
Alas they become the one they're with instead of standing alone
finding who what they are
If they'd only realize no one values what is thrown at them
If they'd take the time to grow alone
not find who they are in another
they would have something worth giving
Is it easy?
No
But then what worth having is?
Yet it is the only way to be valued
For how can you give what you don't have?
How can you have what you have yet to discover?
Stand alone
take the time
Respect yourself
In this
in time
the one worthy will find You
