I do (not) love you

By BeautifullyRuined

I do not love you
do not ask me why
it`s complicated

it could be the way your
smile finds a special place
in my eyes and stays
there long after it vanishes
from your face

or the way your laughter
echoes through my heart
causing it to beat
in the most beautiful way
when you know i hate beauty

I will not lie to you

it could be the way our
bodies fit together
so perfectly

and everytime your fingers
interlace with mine
I feel it touch my soul
the soul i wished dead long ago

alright I`ll tell you
it`s when you say you love me
and I get the most
euphoric feeling and
because i know happiness
is all to fleeting

thats why I do not love you
