Acceptance As A Good Woman

You don't have to be the one. You don't have to be the one to love me or accept my love. You don't have to be. You don't have to realize I'm a good woman. I don't need you. I don't need to have you in my life. I don't need you or anyone. I need myself. I need those who see me for me. I need real love. I need what's real. Deep down we will never work. I turn a new page and you stay in chapter one. My heart beats warm blood when yours... cold & old. Your heart is stuck on a little girl who cheated on you. You don't allow your heart to see I'm a woman who was brought into your life to show you differently. You never open up. Getting you to speak is like pulling your teeth out. You make excuses as to why you could not treat me right. Some can never treat a woman right, even if you get married I still know you as the man you showed me. Even if I'm still single, I am better off than your wife is. I'm aware. I know the real you. Your image could not change who I see even if you smile and look to be doing better off. You can't fool me. I know I'm better off without you.
