When they asked me who I was I gave them a simple reply, but what I wanted to say was... I'm a mess! I never sleep. I can't control what I eat. I'm an emotional and nervous wreck. But I can lie and say I'm trying my best. (I'm not) I still have a long ways to go. After all, I am a work in progress, you know?

Hot Mess
Romeo, can't you see? She doesn't deserve you d̶o̶ ̶I̶?̶ She doesn't deserve how you replay your memories of her: How her lips felt upon yours The way the sound of her laughter echoes e̶c̶h̶o̶e̶s̶ e̶c̶h̶o̶e̶s̶ e̶c̶h̶o̶e̶s̶ The way her hand fits yours How your world revolved around her Stop, she isn't yours anymore Romeo, can't you see? She took a part of you when she left Leaving behind shattered pieces of your barely beating heart Can't you see? She is the epitome of a lie Toxic that takes over the blood in your veins Romeo, can't you see? You're killing me Your words like shattered glass upon my bleeding heart Your doubts and insecurities, the sight of your misery, torturing me You are more than enough You deserve more m̶o̶r̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶n̶ ̶I̶ ̶c̶a̶n̶ ̶g̶i̶v̶e̶ Maybe love wasn't meant for me but it was for you M̶y̶ ̶h̶e̶a̶r̶t̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶r̶s̶ Romeo, can't you see? How mesmerizing your smile is How it would light up the whole universe and you wouldn't even notice How the sound of my name rolls off your tongue like honey How I feel the entire zoo in my stomach with just one look How much you're affecting me Can't you see how madly in love I am? C̶a̶n̶’̶t̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶ ̶s̶e̶e̶ ̶m̶e̶?̶ Romeo, can't you see? I̶’̶d̶ ̶b̶e̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶r̶ ̶J̶u̶l̶i̶e̶t̶ ̶i̶n̶ ̶a̶ ̶h̶e̶a̶r̶t̶b̶e̶a̶t̶.̶
