The Girl

I've never been that girl.

The one that needs saving.

The one that calls you, crying at 2am. 

I've wanted to be. 

Sometimes, I try. 

But then, at that critical moment,

That turning point,

I stop.

I wipe away the tears.

I lift up my head.

I smile.

That is the girl I have always been.

The strong one.

The girl who can make it on her own.

I think that's why it made me sad.

Because sometimes, the girl who can make it on her own,

Is left to make it on her own.
