Feelings For You

My Feelings For You: Hate

You are mindless, naive automatons of a place

a place I hate, a place I despise.

You are symbols of everything I hate about this town

I hate you.



My Feelings For You: Love

You are strong, and rarely hurt me.

You are sweet when needed

I've learned to ignore your weaknesses

and promote your strengths.

I love you.



I feel for you both these things...

these conflicting things.

I am torn apart by them,

as they fight among themselves.

And as they collide, I vary from them.

I hate you, yet I love you...

by them, my destiny is insanity.



I vow that

by the time that I am done

in this Purgatory on Earth

Heaven and Hell it is from,

I swear I will be away from you.

I will get away from you,

away from the pain and the conflicts...

the confusion I will escape.

I swear it.



I only pray that by leaving I will not hurt you.

You seemed shocked at my tears when

I found someone from my life of old,

you seemed hurt at the prospect of me leaving.

I can only hope that when I escape,

I will not take your hearts with me...
