You Hate That I Love You

I love you, but you hate me
I want to hold you, but you'd shove me
I want you're love, but you'd want my hate
Why do you judge, when love is fate

Afraid then
of only what,
that if I kissed you
you wouldn't stop me
that you would actually fall for me

You've placed your boundaries
that I would never cross
you avoid my eyes
to look at the time
running from that part of me 
that discomforts you

You judged that part
but without knowing my heart
You pushed me away
when I wanted you stay

But still you don't know
that I think about you everyday
that when you avoided me
I loved you any way

Even after that day
even when I stayed away
even when I tried to build hate each day
I still love you any way
