Ms. Independent
meaning:
Ms. I-get-it-on-my-own.
meaning:
no matter how hard I have to work for it,
I’ma get it on my own.
Meaning:
There is nothing you can give me
that I can’t get -
on my own.

And this isn’t an attitude acquired
from stubborn, hard-headed tendencies.
(or.. on second thought),
…maybe it is, because..
I REFUSE
to feel inadequate.

It is not a state of mind
derived from a “FUCK-MEN”mentality.
It’s a drive to provide
(for myself)
everything my heart desires.

It’s my un-willingness
to have to sacrifice any bit of me
because I depend on... you.
It’s my strive to survive
even if
You leave me.
It’s my personal claim to
“I don’t need a man to survive”

(lol)

Intimidated? ... I hope not.

What you are looking at
is a strong woman.
Everything I have,
make no mistake,
I worked hard for it.
I WORK hard for it.
But that doesn’t mean that
I don’t want someone to share it with.
It doesn’t mean
that I don’t like being spoiled
time to time.
It doesn’t mean
that I don’t want a man.
It just means
that the standards I set for myself
Are the standards
that I set for you.

..for YOU…
MR. Independent.

Because I know you, too,
Don’t NEED me…
And that’s what makes it so beautiful.
You see..
You don’t NEED me.
I don’t NEED you.
Yet,
Here we are, us two..
And not out of need--
--Out of CHOICE--
--Out of LOVE.--
and THAT’s what’s real.

One day, we will form a union
So beautiful and strong..
Trade in our single surnames
To share the same last name
**MR & MRS. Independent.**

Has a nice ring to it ..doesnt it?
Now, all we have to do-
Is find each other.
