MORE SECURE
You made me feel like I've never felt before
But, then, you turned around and walked out my door!!
I don't know where to turn - I can't talk to Mom and Dad
They wouldn't understand or care why I'm so sad!

I still love you and I'm not ready to move on
Because what I thought was forever is now gone!
I wanted to tell you last night - but you were drinking
While you were talking, I was doing some thinking!

You made me more secure of myself
And even more so after you left!
I can have and do anything if I put my heart and mind into it
Anyone can love me and I'm finally beginning to believe it!

When we met, I was filled with self-doubt,
But, after you, I'm taking more chances and wandering about!
I'm beginning to care and love more of myself
And I now know that I'm better off since you left!!
