Don’t bother giving me Ambien
I don’t want to fall asleep and
wake up to this reality.

You tell yourself he’s not your type
He will be nothing more than a one night stand

The more I stare at your lips the more I convince myself I am undeserving of such perfection. 

You are worthy despite your flaws. If people care they will make time for you, and they will genuinely want to know your feelings. They will go out of their way for you.

I tried to be as emotionally unattached as possible, being coy about anything that could lead to what I have kept hidden away – but it was all in vain, you got to me.
