I learned in the recent times
How to let myself free
Realized and accepted that for the process
All I need is- 'Me'

My life was so jumbled up
I felt like giving up in despair
But recent years taught me
All I needed was some love and care.

Hard pressed to earn a name
Kept me in a continous mess
But then I realized and accepted
That only spending time with myself could get me happiness.

Unaware of my true self
I had turned underconfident
But since I learned more of me
All my insecurities were put in abandonment.

Now I know the girl
Who looks back at me in the mirror
She's confident in her skin
Since she knows no one can be like her.

Life will go on
Good and bad times will come and go
But now I know
That I need breaks for myself to grow.

I gotta take care of
The person I love the most
She's been with me always
So she surely deserves an occasional toast.

Well now I'm at peace
As I'm no longer what I used to be
Since I have accepted that
All I need is- 'Me'.
