Dedicated to a friend...

So who needs a boyfriend anyway?
That's the conclusion I came to today.
It's not so bad being just one
Actually, it can be quite fun.

Hanging out at the mall all day,
Appreciating your friends in a new special way.
Never having to worry about him,
Whether he be Aaron, Chris, Michael or Jim.
Which movie to rent on Saturday night
Is no longer an issue that ends in a fight.

Going where you want, seeing who you please
Even though you miss having someone to tease.
Three-hour phone calls about nothing at all
Become three-hour shopping trips with
Mom at the mall.
You see more of your little sister now, too,
Being surprised at how much she grew.

But please, I ask, don't shed a tear.
I know that your heart must be filled with fear.
Being alone can be rough at first
But it only gets better, it doesn't get worse.
Soon enough you'll love once more
But for now, it's yourself you should adore.
Look at every day with a new brighter light
And I'm sure, like me, in time you'll be all right...
