I can't do this anymore. I give up.

I can't become who I become when I fall crazy in love. I can't chase you around. I don't have the energy in me anymore to be a chaser.

Waiting around for you to text back; waiting for you... Just... Waiting, waiting, waiting.

No. I won't do this. I deserve someone who's sure about me; someone who'd choose me without a pause.

I can't deal with this. I won't. I give up. Officially.
