I loved you. I swear
It was the worst and
the best all at once

I hated you, I did
for when I showed love
I fell down hard and fast

I loved you, but it is gone..
I pushed it away, killing it
I forced myself to forget those years..
and how you never redeemed all my tears.

I care..I do, but it's just not the same
when I find someone new and I find out his name.
he holds me so close, and kisses so sweet
and now I find I am swept off my feet..

but you lurk behind me, my first love so true..
and now I find that I'm breaking from you.
I'm sorry I changed, I hope you don't hurt..
but finally you see why I was so curt.

I loved you for years, and hated for days
and now I find out that you offer praise
I cannot accept, as more than a friend,
my loving and hating, for you, has to end.
