I may not be prepared
to meet you just yet
but just the knowledge
that you are out there
somewhere waiting for me
just as I am waiting for you
is enough to spur me on
to end this vicious cycle
of using a man
to get over another man
or maybe it isn't that at all.
maybe I am just realizing
I need to be like those
women I admire.
I need to grow into myself
love myself
cherish myself
enough to be whole
without another being
strapped against my body.
