I don't like the way I feel.
The way I feel about myself,
The way I feel about you,
The way I feel about us.

I wish I didn't love you,
It'd be easier that way.
I wouldn't have to feel guilty about anything.

I wish that you loved me back,
but i'm also so glad you don't.

I hate that I feel like i'm letting you down,
I feel like I constantly disappoint you.

I hate the way I feel when I talk to you,
I feel like all i'm capable of doing is not going to be enough.

Maybe I don't love you,
I know I love everything about you.
I love your smile,
your eyes,
your laugh,
your strength,
your thoughts,
your heart,
your hands,
your soul,
your everything.
But maybe I just don't love you.

I really thought I did,
I feel like I do,
You keep trying to convince me I don't.

So I hate the way I feel,
Then again,
I'm so glad I feel the way I do.
Only because it's about you.
