Summary: Sakura doesn't need help anymore
A/N: Coz she really has changed…
I couldn't buy your love before,
I couldn't buy your time
I couldn't buy your affection –
But I gave you all of mine.
I couldn't go to you before,
I couldn't see a way
I couldn't tell you I was scared –
But I left it for the day.
I couldn't confide in you before,
I couldn't hope to try
I couldn't give you my deepest secrets –
But at night alone I'd cry.
Now I don't need your help no more,
This time it's not a lie
Segregation strengthened me –
With the eagles now I fly.
---- Haruno Sakura, chuunin
