I hate falling in love

isn’t that wild? 

that feeling of needing to be closer to someone 

needing to find out who they are

I hate it 

it’s not because it’s never done me good in the past 

it’s not because I’m bitter 

I’m not shy or remorseful or angry

I just hate it 

maybe if I were closer to you 

maybe if I knew more about you

I wouldn’t hate it as much
