I Love That You Hate Me

I Love That You Hate Me

A Poem by Jessica Lima

Every time you texted me after we went our separate ways
gave me hope.
That was very fucked up of you,
I still wait around and I don't know how to cope.

You absence and silence cut deep into my core.
Deeper than any knife, stronger than any lure.
Though you squeeze my heart
You'll always be the man I adore.

Your touch heats my skin,
Your kiss sets me on fire.
You take only what YOU need,
And leave me burning with desire.

I've been told to be patient and kind
But I'm only an object, aren't I?
So why do people care if I fall and break
And take lives in my wake?

You called again. And I hate myself.
This is how it always goes
Before the second ring
I'm already saying hello.

Emotions well expressed. It's amazing how you have put forth a situation that at some point in our life, we all go through. Amazingly relatable. Good work!

This was emotionally gorgeous, I love the way you penned it so full of passion and longing, I'm sure this write holds significant truth, trust me sweetie, a man that would walk away from such a wonderful soul is a fool and is in no way worthy to share your air, thanks for sharing your heart once again

Gosh, you spoke about emotions that are so relatable and interchangeable between sexes or same sex relationship...it's like a moth to a flame...nicely done.

Well penned, bit emotional
You absence and silence cut deep into my core.
Deeper than any knife, stronger than any lure.
Though you squeeze my heart
You'll always be the man I adore.

The lines above I like the most. Keep writing.
