Self: "Hey, it's me.
Um.
I'm not sure what to say.
I knew you wouldn't answer,
I wanted to reach your voicemail.
And I did.
But,
Now that I have.
I forgot what to say.
I haven't heard from you in a while.
I guess I just wanted to make sure you were ok.
But I guess that's not enough reason,
To call now a days.
I wanted to know if you missed me.
The way I've been missing you.
And I wanted to tell you,
That I loved you so much.
I wish that you could've knew.
Would've saw how much I needed you.
You know,
Honestly.
You left me in the cold.
You told me I was your everything.
I guess you just had to fold.
You know,
I'm actually kind of pissed.
You took me as a joke.
How could you use me like this?
And leave me by my lonely.
God,
It's been days and you're still radio silent.
I know you've seen the calls and texts.
You're just choosing to remain silent.
You're just choosing to ignore me.
I don't know why my emotions still control me.
You don't even know me.
Anymore.
We're strangers.
Yet I still want you to know me.
And it isn't fair.
That you casted a spell.
And latched me on your body.
Because now I pale and want to fail.
And live all by my lonely.
I wish that I had never fell,
For you...
This hurts too much I can't...

Goodbye.
End call.
Self: Calm down.
You're caught up in your emotions.
Just breathe.
He doesn't even deserve,
To hear you speak well of him.
Stop telling him,
You love him.
You've got to stop acting out on a whim.
If he's not the one for you.
You'll live.
Go back to pretending.
Don't let your mind control you.
It's a battle between your heart and your mind.
Your wants and needs.
You don't need him.
You wanted him.
Wants do not beat our needs.
Remember that please.
Wants do not beat our needs.
