I hate you
But then I love you
And I cannot explain why
Heart palpitations quicken 
When you are near me

I know you could feel those beats
As I could feel yours
Hands get palmy
Mind is racing
What are you doing to me

I wish I knew this spell you put upon me
Days will pass and I will forget you
Sunny days will bask my window pane
And I am reminded of carefree days past
When I never knew you
And you never knew me

Then there you are

And the memories will rush back all over again
the walks
The laughs
The warm embrace
The yearnings for more that we cannot have

I try shooing them away 
But its hard
When you are there, facing me
With those dark, sad eyes
Marks with the wounds of a POW
that nearly kill 

But I feel my kiss will save you
And if it didn't
At least you know that I love you
But does it make a difference

You still hate me
And I still hate you
But from across the room
I know your heart yearns for me
as it does for you

But it does not matter
Because I am not for you
