Just Not Now

Understand I'm only looking for a friend.
While you tend to rush things.
That's the boy I used to be.
I know that haste makes waste.
I'm not looking to break anymore hearts.
I've wasted so much time looking for perfection.
I'm finally learning to love my own reflection.
Happiness can only be found within yourself.
You shouldn't expect much out of anyone.
Only you can mend your own wounds.
Stop playing the victim.
I've made mistakes and I don't regret them.
Atleast I know what real love is.
So I'm not saying never, just not now.
I'm still not ready and I'm not letting anyone rush me.
You say you like me when we haven't even met in person.
I think you must be desparate like I used to be.
I'm not about to settle for less.
True love shouldn't be out of convenience.
I'll be your friend cause' we have things in common.
But I'm not looking to latch on to anyone.
At the moment I'm better off alone.
I have to love myself first and foremost.
I won't find my completeness within you.
I'll just end up using you and tossing you aside.
That's why I'm not approaching you.
I know myself way too well.
You think you already know me.
But I have many different faces.
They can all tell you.
I look innocent but I'm not.
I tend to break hearts.
So I'm not saying never, just not now.
I will say that nothing is forever.
Everything comes to an end.
That's why I'm only looking for friends.
