Persuaded

She was persuaded to hide The love so deeply she felt inside For those who thought they knew her, who thought they knew best She was told he will never to be good enough for you and to put your feelings to rest How do others know what is good for you, is actually true When they have hardly spent a glimpse with you, as you change over time with their every view To decide another’s fate, when it is not your own It seems that you would be throwing your own happiness out as a result and to be cursed and alone It’s not up to you to tell another if he or she is wrong So much talking and noise, it’s like the strings on a puppet for them to play along Let them decide on their own, if they are meant to be or to move completely on As the universe has already decided and it is up to them to listen to their own song
