Desperately despising
His touch, voice, and sight
Unable to lose him
Death to claim
His innocent heart.
Is her painstaking wish
Yet her biggest fear.
Lonely doesn’t suit her.
She needs him
But hates him
Wants him
But cant bare to look at him.
He drives her
Insane
But she longs for it.
The want to diswant.
Loving what she hates most.
They are nothing alike
But unmistakably identical.
He wants to love her.
She wants to want him.
A self-forbiddingness.

this is about a girl who is wanting so bad to let the feelings she has for this boy flurish but is unable to let herself.
