Blurred Lines Love and Hate

The Blurred Line {Love & Hate} 11/25/17
M.Crumbly 

Love and hate walking the same(fine)line is volatile,
 No way around it... no need for denial.
They're not one and the same,
Not equal by measure or by name. 
 Not meant to be on the same side of the scale.
Tipping that scale and making life hell.
Hell because there's no balance and no end in sight,
Your mind & your heart forever intwined in a fight! 
Love and hate hand in hand- that's danger!
You become lost somewhere in your own mind, a total stranger.
Not who you thought you'd be,
Not really able to get free.
Wanting freedom to breath - to be alive.
Freedom is the balance that you know will never arrive.
Not while he is anywhere near.
Maybe the next life he won't be there.
Maybe next time love and hate don't look and act so much as one
In another life maybe we are [finally]done!
I wonder how many lives I've thought not again, 
How many times we've let this begin ?
Do we always blur the line?
Not the line but "our"line (between) love and hate- it's so tiny,so fine. 
This is not normal, so not right,
And yet it's just another night.
