I l̶o̶v̶e̶ hate you
I wish I could say
I love you
without having to say
I love you.
Because it isn't just you I love
it's the feeling I get by being around you
the way your laugh echos through my mind for a moment
or maybe longer?
I love the way your smile can linger even when you're gone
I love the way you're gentle like the creation of a song
I love the secret glances we exchange
but being without you feels
rather strange
to say the least.
I said I'm moving.
Farther east
but you didn't like that, infact
I saw the way your forehead creased
but this was back then
now you found someone new and exciting
but I notice when you talk about her
she doesn't seem so
inviting
You like brunette but you prefer blonde
you like getting attention but you'd rather not
or atleast that's what I heard you mention
to your friends
the other day
ill try something new
maybe you'll notice and I could be 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳
blue
I can be quiet.
"Just say it"
you'll whisper
"I love you"
accidently slipping from my tongue
like a double edged blade.
It burns in my throat as I wish to take it back
but before I can say it
"I hate you"
spills out instead.
I didn't mean to say it
I feel my throat tightnen as you look rather
enlightened?
you know I don't mean it
I guess I love that too but
I wish instead of
I hate you
you said
I love you too
