The Line Between Love and Hate

I hate you for not caring I hate you for not being there I hate you for not responding I hate you for your pompous air I hate you for mutilating This sensitive heart of mine I hate you for not seeing me As possessing beauty fine I hate you for your incessant Playing with my deep emotion And I hate you for the ridicule Of my ardent strong devotion I hate you for not giving me The dire attention that I need And I do hate you for making This little heart of mine to bleed I hate you for being indifferent And I hate you for being rude I hate you for being handsome And I hate you for being crude I hate you because you make me Forget to be vicious like you And I hate that you make me want To give my love to you anew I hate the truth that proclaims A thin line twix love and hate I hate it that you’ve made me Want to cross that line of late.

Thanks, Yvette. I wrote this in a particularly dark and upsetting moment. While there is life...there is hope! Hugs!
