You tell yourself that you can't make it,

Even if your bestfriend says you can,

Because why do their words matter?

Oh right because they do!,

Their your bestfriend,

Your lover,

You don't need others,

You have them and with them your free,

Free from the hate,

Free from the pain,

Free from what seems to be everything,

But what is Freedom if alone,

If alone means to not have someone,

Then I am nowhere near alone,

I have people,

I have them,

I have her. 

I am free.
