Growing Up

It seems for the future I am prepared,
But the thought of commitment is getting me scared,

These feelings I feel, they're different, they're new,
Being loved and adored is the reason my confidence grew.

I feel like his love is helping me cope,
I'm worried if he leaves me I can't stand on my own.

I'm forgetting my family, the child I used to be,
hurting them by fighting for the one I want to see.

Taking bigger steps every chance I get,
is making me worry that I'll look back with regret.

Young by age, matured in the mind,
the little girl they want back is hard to find.
