I love you despite my apparent distance

I hate you in all my indifference

I trust you with my half-hesitance

I need you for your significance

In relationships sometimes you feel,torn down the middle, aching to be loved yet afraid of being hurt.

I usually have trouble describing my emotions with few words because i assume people need details to understand, so i'm really glad that you proved me wrong.
