I Hate That I Love You

I hate that you're my every thought
That I wake with you on my mind
And fall asleep
To images of your smile

I hate that I adore you so
With gorgeous eyes
And sweet lips
I long to taste

I hate the way you make me feel
Like I need you to survive
As if breathing without you
Is excruciating

I hate that I yearn for you
I hunger for your touch
Every moment
Of every day

I hate the way I love you
With every beat
Of my wretched heart
That loving you keeps me alive
Yet keeps me alone
