Wait.
Before you get too attached,
There are some things you should know.

First of all, I have a fear that people just tolerate me, and they long for the moment I leave them alone.
Secondly,
I hate the way I look.
Every noteworthy feature.
I want you to call me beautiful,
Not 'hot.' Because hot is a word that means nothing,
Beautiful is the word I want to hear, because I want to believe it.
Thirdly,
I have bad days and good days.
Never think it's your fault,
It's just the way I am.
I overthink and get overwhelmed so you need to comfort me, tell me everything is alright.

So wait.
Before you get too attached,
Bear in mind those things.
But I will love you so much and I will fall for you pretty damn hard.

Because if you still want to be with me after all those imperfections then you really are the perfect person that I have dreamed of meeting.
