Love and Hate Interchangable

Love and Hate Interchangable

A Poem by Melanie Nicole
"

What I hate about you. Make of it what you will.

"
I hate you truly.

Your blue eyes are gazing elsewere.

I hate your perfect smile and the way you laugh.

Your sense of humor and your loving touch.

The words you spoke to me time after time.

"Goodnight, love."

"I love you, dear."

I hate your lips on my neck and your smell in the air.

Your jacket sitting in my closet.

Yes, I hate that too.

I hate your hands entertwined with mine,

I hate you tracing aimless lines on my palm.

Kissing me for at that your worth--

I hate that too.

Lay there with me for just a little while

No, don't--I hate you, haven't you heard?

I hate how one word will brighten my day

Please me love, won't you stay?

No, I beg you to leave

I hate you

My darling, your letters, I hate them too

"The first girl I introduced to my parents and the last," you say?

Please exscuse me if I call you a liar-

It's what you are, is it not?

Please don't wave at me from across the room

Honestly dear, I hate that too.

Kissing in the rain and laying in the grass?

Please don't, please go away.

Don't pull me onto your lap and kiss ny neck-

I hate that too.

We take a plunge, a chance to fly

I gave you everything.

I hate you for that.

Truly, I do.

Its so true....men usually take everything and leave you with nothing in return. I completely relate to what you were saying about hating him and wanting him so much at the same time--and the wandering eyes, thats directly on target! Awesome job!

I like how you have taken so much hate and turned it into a well written piece. It's not snarky and you aren't trying to be witty..straight forward...it's makes me hate the other person too...good writing here
