Make myself believe

I repeat the same words to myself
So I won't forget them if I need them
But when the time comes when I do
I lose my focus, lose my mind
I lose my senses, lose time
When I see you my worries, hurt,
and pain literally vanish
Honestly it's like magic
The way you can cause damage
and make me panic
I lose my focus, lose my mind
But my doubts disappear
And for once my heart feels fine
I know we don't need to belong
I know this isn't true love
But this is enough
I am sort of using you, of course
But don't you think I know
That you're using me for worse?
Sometimes I hate you
The only problem is that
I love the way I hate you
I love the way we use each other
Speaking secretly but still known
Being together is better than alone
And, honestly, the way that
We aren't meant to be
Is more of a reason to defy love
And, honestly, I do love you.
But the reason these words exist
Is because I dont know
If you love me
So I make excuses to hate you
And make myself believe it
I love you
I hate the way I love you
