I cannot believe I let you get to me.
I let myself believe I needed you.
But I do not need a man to complete me.
Yes, it was nice to imagine myself happy with you.
But I much prefer being happy in reality
than in some fabricated fantasy.
I cannot believe I let you get in my head.
Seeing you with her transformed me
from a girl with confidence
to a girl filled with envy and insecurities.
I cannot believe I let myself believe
that she was perfect
and I was not.
I let myself believe I was undeserving of you
I cannot believe I couldn't see that was untrue.
How did I let myself think I was worth so little?
I cannot believe I did not realize earlier
that I am not meant to be with you.
I thought you were the best I've ever seen
but you're not the man for me
And it may have hurt to see how perfect you guys
seem together,
but I've finally realized my worth.
Maybe you don't see it,
and maybe you never will,
but someday someone will,
and just maybe,
fantasy will meet reality.
