security, lack of

she saw people look for security
in each other
ask for promises, vows
snoop around, spy in and out

and she also saw
that it would not last
it never did,
the promises were always broken
the snooping led to bad news
the spying made you a monster
that you cannot look in the eye

and so she resolved
that she would not go that way
and never asked for any promises
nor got around to any snooping

it looked like she  might
not need security at all
but that was not true

and she sought security
within herself

whatever happens
you have to stay strong
and you have to handle
anything that comes your way
and you have to start over
said she to herself

but of course
a relationship cannot last
unless you put
all your eggs
in that basket

(or so she thought)
