Insecurity

i wanted to grow up 

i wanted to be strong 

i wanted to learn life's lessons 

to know what's right from wrong 

she told me i should join her 

she told me it would be okay 

i took her wise advice 

not knowing the price i'd pay 

we embarked on our journey 

like we've done in the past 

one thing i didn't know was 

that this would be our last 

she thought that i was lucky 

to have her as a friend 

but she needed me much more

so why does she pretend?

she uses my intense personality 

as an excuse for her betrayal 

making herself look like a victim 

will one day make her fail 

my true friend had warned me 

that i was just her back up plan 

and that once she found another 

i'd be disposed of in the litter can 

i guess i was prepared 

to be an unworthy rejection 

but i was also embraced 

by my true friend's protection 

i don't hate her for her actions 

or for her social impurity 

for she too is a victim 

to what they call insecurity
