Hate
Relationships between friends, family, and lovers aren't always based on love. Sometimes they are based on the strongest emotion that the two people feel when they're together, and despite how out of place that feeling may seem, it is often the only thing that keeps their relationship stable and intact-- even convincing them to stay in a stalemate forever due to how strong that emotion is in comparison to the one in all their other relationships.

Dawn came too soon
It's lonely without sleep to drag you by
Ten days ago already feels like a distant dream
I'm tired all the time
But I'm not the type to drag on conversations
I'll keep it a secret for now
So I won't have to answer questions
For a while
I'd rather you think of me
As selfish and lazy
Than as someone who's angry and sad all the time
It's hard to keep this front
When you keep asking and asking
Hoping you'll find something
You could change about me
The little things matter the most to me
But every little thing about me
You want them to change
When I wanted nothing more than sleep
I'll be quieter than usual
You don't like me that way
But still no words come to mind
Maybe we'll be closer if I tell you everything
But then your questions will change to demands
And I'll be stuck in your cage again
It's a cycle that'll never end
We're two people that should never have met
We're too stubborn
We hold endless grudges
For each other's past mistakes
In the end
It has all come down to hate
Personal space used to mean something
But when you're uncommon or too strange
The world ignores your needs
I make friends that'll never stay
Talk with you once a day
Because I loved every minute with you
But I always need a break
You can see my worries beneath my eyes
You can see it in the way I smile
I'm not doing anything to fix them
Hoping that someone-- that you'll notice them
I don't regret who I am
But sometimes, I know I need help
You say you'll be happy as long as I'm independent
I'm already doing all the things you asked for me
But can is not the same as doing it like you
So I shut my mouth, and hear your lectures
Hoping that at those moments you can read my mind
To give me a moment of peace
So our tiring cycle won't start again
We hurt each other where it hurts the most
You need conversations, debates,
respect from everyone you meet
I need quiet, silence, a friend with me
If it were other people
We won't be asking that much
But we found each other
I guess it's just our luck
In the end
Hate is all that's growing
We're greedy, we're selfish
We're sad, but happiness is not something
We could give to one another
We're children crying for attention
Crying for adulthood to come
And make us stronger
But here we are, the same as ever
With hate as our bond
Hate, a feeling only adults have gone through
Is that the only thing we've gained
After years of growing up
Looking for another childhood within one another
We bring out the children in us
In all the worse ways possible
But everytime I think of leaving
I felt myself standing still
Needing to stay
Because if I leave
No one will have a deeper bond
With me than you
So in the end
I don't want to abandon this hate
In your eyes
I could see you feel the same way
Your madness overtakes you
Then you pull me back
Begging me to stay
It's not love, it's not a pure kind of feeling
It's just hate
Our hate
But it's stronger than anything else possible
