Ten Things I Hate About You...

Inspired by the film, rewritten for the one who made it personal.

I hate the way you talk to me,
The subtext isn't fair.

I hate the way you keep me hidden,
And the messages that aren't there.

I hate your pretty blue nails,
And the way you consume my mind.

I hate how deeply you see me,
And how you've inspired me to rhyme.

I hate the way you're so damn smart,
I hate that you're a little shy.

I hate it when you make me laugh,
Even worse when you make me cry.

I hate it that you can't reply,
I hate that you couldn't call.

But mostly, I hate the way I don't hate you.
Not even close,
Not even a little bit,
Not even at all.
