I Hate That I Love You


I hate that I love you

But to love someone else... That I can't do

Even though I know you ain't the one

If we ever crossed again I wouldn't think to run

And although I know this I still act oblivious

To what you say and how you say it at what time of the night

I'll let you in at any moment to see if the feeling's right

All for the same shit that makes me sleepless

Feelings full due to empty words and promises

You'll always be the one even though you ain't the one

It may be overdue, maybe I'll never be through

You run deep in my mind for reasons I can't find

Still... I hate that I love you.

I love fashion... I love expression. I get my points across through style and poetry. I am shameless, daring, and bold.
