treat me like the girl you say I am.

something I won’t ever do is

chase you

change you

or try to save you

I don’t need to

rescue you

you are

more than capable of

saving yourself

come and 

rescue me instead

because unlike you

I don’t ask for the world

you’re a human being

and I realize that

I’m not impossible

I am a human being

so realize that

I am a girl with a heart

big as this blue sky

and all I ask

is for you to step up

to treat me like the girl

you tell me I am

and maybe

for once

I’ll believe you

when you tell me

what you think I am

I’m done proving to you

who I can be

it’s your turn now
