Him, I hated him, he was a terrible guy
I don't know why he made me cry-die
He made me suffocate on my tears,
He made me scream, engulfed by my fears-he made me lose my mind
It was his fault that I would die
He made me a monster, he gave me my scars
He destroyed my life, he scattered my stars
I hate that I love him, I hate more that it hurts
I hate that I can't trust him, I hate more that hating him never works
I love his smile, I love stupid grins and his cackles
I love that he saw me; I loved him that I laughed
I hope I could forgive him, I hope that we can last
I hope that I have courage, that when he comes back I can leave fast
I pray that he ignores me, that he doesn't restart his chase
I pray that I could finally win, be it in love or this race
