Broken Lies

By smearedXmakeup

Dear lover,

I never wanted to hate ANYONE as much as i hate you right now. My deadliest enemy and my most horrible bully are more loved than you. Hatred from my heart has never been directed at someone with such power as it is when i look into those eyes.

and yet...
I've always wanted to love someone.... as much as i loved you.

As much as i want to push you over the highest of cliffs or hold your lashing body under water with all my might, I can't help but stop when I hear you breathing.

because I've never wanted to hear someones heart stop beating... as much as i want to hear yours start.
