Kartik and Gemma

I thought I hated you,
But really I hated how you made me feel.
I wanted to be indifferent, to not care
The way your feelings went back and forth.
You betray me; and yet your love keeps
You from leaving me forever.
As if on cue, you return
When I thought you were lost to me.
I want you, I need you,
But the coolness you display begins to push me away.
I'm torn in two,
Between this world and the next.
I don't know who to trust,
And yet you are always at the front of my mind.
You finally relent and I take you to another part of me.
You are free and I'm made aware of your true feelings.
Just one kiss, oh dear one,
Will save me from what I've become.
Don't put yourself in my place,
For I need you to carry on.
You said you didn't believe in destiny,
Though you were destined to save me.
And my name will forever be on your tongue.
