I wanted to jump,
But you held me back.
I wanted to hide,
But you found me.
I wanted to stay in the darkness,
But you shine your light over me.

I smacked you,
And you held me.
I hit you,
And you kissed me.
I pulled away from you,
And you comforted me.

Those are the reasons you bother me,
And though I haven’t said it out loud,
Those are the same reasons I love you.
