Of Love and What Comes After

I love 
The leaves that fall too silent to the 
ground, I love
When I'm lost and don't want to be 
found, I love 
When I dance and my head's spinnin 
round, I love
When you leave and I feel like 
I've drowned. 
I love 
When you hate me so much that it 
hurts, I love 
When you push me to ashes and 
dirts, I love
When my eyes are as dry as 
desserts, I love
When I can't seem to manage my blurts. 
I love 
When I'm numb and I don't feel a 
thing, I love 
When the feel of a bee doesn't 
sting, I love 
When I sleep walk from winter to 
spring, I love
When the memories choke like a 
string but I hate
You.
