Have You Stopped Hating Me

The sun no longer burns me The clouds hugged away the moon last night The stars sang from behind the curtain Have you stopped hating me? The cuckoo returns to the garden as flowers sway in the breeze and the nightingale dances on my patio wall. Have you stopped hating me? The storms go unreported. The torrents of rain disappear. And in the still night, the wolf howls are not heard. Have you stopped hating me? There's no more horror in the waves of the sea The earth no longer shakes Even the graveyard dogs are silent Have you stopped hating me?
