I should hate you,
I should hate you for leaving me broken.
For all the words you left unspoken,
when I simply wanted to hear.
I should hate you,
I should hate you for leaving me empty.
For telling me you wasn't ready,
When you knew that I was.
I should hate you,
I should hate you with every fiber.
For hiding your feelings like a tiger,
Ready to tear me to pieces.
I should hate you,
I should hate you but I don't.
I love you but I'm afraid,
so afraid you won't.
