False Feelings.

I hate it.
The way you've been.
It may not be horrible.
I'm still reminded of it every day.
You used to be my own personal ego booster.
Now, you're my own personal reminder.
You remind me of the old ways.
The ways before she came into the picture.
All those times you called me cute?
Were they fake, or were they real?
You made me feel good.
I felt not so ugly.
But now you have a girlfriend.
Yeah.
I saw you staring the other day.
You wanted to call me cute again.
I like you.
I liked you before you started to call me cute.
Since that first day of school.
When you signed in right after me.
No, I don't think you're fat.
I don't think you're ugly either.
I don't even like you for just your looks.
I like your attitude.
Would you like me for mine?
I think not.
