I love you though you’re far away,   or did I misread love’s disarray?   You’d beat me down, day after day,   yet my heart still longs for you in a twisted way. What is this feeling that won’t let go?   A mix of desire and pain, a tangled woe.   I pray you’re distant, yet yearn for your embrace,   a love that’s marred by sorrow, a bittersweet chase. I want you, yet hate you for the hurt you’ve sown,   in this conflicted heart, I’m lost and alone.   Love and loathing dance in a cruel disguise,   a tormenting truth beneath my tear-filled eyes.

Conflicted Heart
I love you though you’re far away,   or did I misread love’s disarray?   You’d beat me down, day after day,   yet my heart still longs for you in a twisted way. What is this feeling that won’t let go?   A mix of desire and pain, a tangled woe.   I pray you’re distant, yet yearn for your embrace,   a love that’s marred by sorrow, a bittersweet chase. I want you, yet hate you for the hurt you’ve sown,   in this conflicted heart, I’m lost and alone.   Love and loathing dance in a cruel disguise,   a tormenting truth beneath my tear-filled eyes.
Love Pain Uneasy
