I'm so tired of hearing
"You look so hot!" "You look ****." "****, you look gorgeous."

Then they look at you eagerly for a response, and I smile back woodenly but inside it means nothing.
Just words that pass my one ear and fall out the other.
No substance.
Is that how men think they can "get" a girl these days?
You want to know the key to my heart?
Tell me that I make you happy. That I make you laugh. That my smile can't help make you smile. That what I said the other day made you think. That you love my wild side. That you think of me before your eyes close as you're about to fall asleep. That the thought of me makes your stomach feel light.

That's all I want to hear.
And it's all I'll never hear.
