I want this body for you.
I'm working so hard for you.
All I want,
All I've ever wanted,
Is you.

But still,
I'm never enough.

You promise me my body is perfect.
But I know what perfect is,
I know what perfect looks like,
And this stomach.
These hips,
These thighs,
These arms,
How could these be anywhere near perfect?

I hate myself.

But you,
You made me love myself at one point.

When you told me your feelings.
I felt like I was good enough,
I felt like you loved me.

And you told me you loved me.

But you found someone better.
Like I knew you would.

And stupid me!
I'm stuck,
I'm stuck loving you .

Your stupid smile,
Your stupid eyes,
Your stupid features,
Your stupid beautiful body,
Get out of my head!
Get out of my head!

I hate the captionless photos.
I hate that you think it's our thing,
Because apparently nothing has to be said
But I'm losing it !
I can't take it anymore!
I losing the belief that you even care.

But you told me,
You told me you cared.
That through all that Time you cared.

I need your touch.
I need to know you're really here.

Because from behind a phone,
I only feel like a message
Nothing but a stupid notification.

And really, it's pointless
Because either way,
Like I said time and time before,
I love you.
