So What?!!

I’m old enough to be trusted
Smart enough to make my own decisions
Strong enough to love you 
Even through all the hate
No one understands me
Wonders why I love you
Why we’re together
Why does it matter to them?
I know why
That’s all that matters
They ask questions
Say it’s not going to last
But they aren’t us 
They don’t know anything about us
Yet have everything to say about us
They think they know what I want
What I need
Yet they don’t really
Never even asked me
Just told me 
But I need you 
That’s all there is to it
No matter how I try to get away
Everywhere I look
Everything I think about 
There you are
No one is good enough for me
So they say
If you’re not good enough for me
So what
I don’t want better
I’m not leaving until I’m ready
and I’m not ready yet
And neither are you
We love each other for multiple reasons 
Which don’t have to be discussed
Not with them anyway
As long as you love me and I love you
So what?
