I'Ve Learned

I've learned to love myself 
Over these past couple months 
I no longer feel the need 
To be loved by someone else 
You can't love anyone 
Until you learn to love yourself. 
I'm no longer afraid to be alone 
For I know someday I'll find someone 
Who has proven and shown 
That he's the one worthy of my love 
Whose devotion for me 
Will sore high above. 
I've learned that life's too short 
To worry about the little things 
Enjoy the time you have 
Before nothing is as it seems 
Choose your path wisely 
And follow your dreams.
