You Don't Need Him


I thought I had fallen in love before.

My heart was opened and he left me there-

Each day he left me standing in the door

way the way he smiles you better beware

His smile is pure but his intentions are

Not. Don’t let him leave you standing precious

one. And your eyes are a bright shining star

Do not let thoughts of him leave you restless.

Find yourself and allow yourself to shine

Lips of pomegranate, dont eat his fruit

Learn to love yourself and the stars will align

Leave him wondering; leave him in pursuit.

You don’t need a man to complete you girl.

You are flawless,like a beautiful pearl.
