Do I Love Him

(24/08/2-2012)

Who would’ve thought I’d be his? I used to hate him.
What was expected seems never fit the wish
When my mind was for other, fate directed my heart to him
Where is my hatred hiding? Or has it melted then vaporized?
Why now I can’t put a smile without his? Can’t bear my life without him? I guess I do love him
