Not Yours

“Mine,” you say, but you torture me every day. “Mine,” you say, but how am I yours if you don’t care either way? “yours” I say, because I don’t want you to go away. “yours,” I say, because to me, you’re like the light of day. You hurt me, but I need you. I hate you, but I heed you. You know me, and I love you, Because that's what you made me think I'm supposed to do. You ruined me, but without you, I can’t breathe. Staying away from you is hard, but to be safe I have to stay far. I’m not yours anymore.
