I hate you.

And yet when I see you it sends shivers down my spine. I have to be careful that people don't see me looking for you.

I hate you.

And yet when we duel I get distracted in your eyes. You can hit me with stunning spells and it has no effect on my body, because I am so entranced.

I hate you.

And yet when we play quidditch my eyes aren't always on the snitch. They find another object to stay locked on, you.

I hate you, but I want you.

You look at me with malice and insult my dead parents. You punch me and tell me you hope that I die. You call my friends "mudblood" and "weasel".

You don't give a damn what I think. You don't give a damn what I feel. You don't care.

You know that you have me. To you I'm like a little toy for you to play with. You wind me up until I'm about to explode. Then you kiss me. You love to confuse me, it amuses you.

You know that I will never be able to escape the trap you locked me in. I'm forever entranced by you.

You're like a drug. Addictive and dangerous. You are toxic. You are slowly killing me and you don't care.

You love to watch me suffer. You hate me as much as I hate you. You sacrifice your dignity just to confuse me.

I hate you.

And yet when you touch me I want to scream out. I want you more than anything, I always will. You know it. And you use it to hurt me.

And that is why I hate you.

You use me to hurt my friends. You use me to hurt everyone that's close to me. You want to destroy what little I have left.

And that is why I hate you.

You seduce me and leave me to my despair. You never fulfill my need. You never give me enough. You refuse to complete me.

And that is why I hate you.

You make me want to give it all up, just to please you. You make me want to forget everything I stand for, everything good.

And that is why I hate you.

You make me want to go over to the dark side. To forget my parents and betray my friends.

And that is why I hate you.

You are slowly poisoning me. I am slowly becoming like you. I can't stop it, no one can but you. But you don't want to stop it.

And that is why I hate you.

I love you. I have feelings rooted so deep inside that if you were to try and take them out you would have to rip out my still beating heart.

And that is why I hate you.

You will never feel what I feel. You will never love me back.

And that is why I hate you.
