I Hate You

I hate the fact that I love you
I hate your beautiful smile
I hate that you knock down my guard
I hate that I miss you once and a while
I hate that I can see the stars by looking in your eyes
I hate that you're the cause of my lows and highs
I hate the fact that at night you're my last thought
and the first when I wake up, before sunlight is caught
in my eyes, I hate that about you too
I hate that you make me weak, and I don't know what to do
I hate the way you look at me, removing worry from my mind.
I hate that your touch feels so soft and genuine.
I hate how each caress takes me further from this place.
I hate the way your voice throws me into a daze,
I stay lost and confused.
I hate how you do that too.
I hate your walk, with each step you take.
I hate your confidence, and how it grows at my sake.
I hate most things, that come to mind when I think of you,
But the thing that I hate most about you, is the fact that I love you.

I love to watch you when you sleep
cause that's when you're the calmest
Memorizing your face for an image
that keeps me honest
Cause I like to think about
more than just doing you
Motivated just like when
I was pursuing you
You had my heart from the start
it was never in question
When others came around
with all these negative suggestions
I knew that this would last
when you saw right pass my past
I'm slowly falling fast
Do you get it? Dont ask
Now I'm writing about it
Call it blogging
Cant keep running from my love
so start jogging
If I had to
Girl I'd walk the earth for you
Start my life from birth for you
Claim the world as turf for you
Now we're committed
but you don't have to stay, no pressure
But if you walk away
I'll feel buried, no treasure
I usually say
whatever I want to say
but currently no words
are coming my way
I'm speechless
Feels like there's no way I can beat this
Tell me how I treat this
straight up do I meet this
or do i turn and run away
live to fight another day
until I find the words to say
Girl don't play
This is like a very sad love song
Where doing right feels wrong
And doing wrong feels right
All night
But at least now we know
this is forever give and go
on our unselfish flow
and all we have to show ...

is love
