Love
I love you,
therefore,
I hate you
I cause you joy,
yet,
I hurt you
When our lips meet,
There is sweetness,
yet,
It stabs a hole through my heart
When our eyes meet,
I feel my heart melt,
My heart quickens,
yet,
I feel a chill and heart is damaged beyond repair
It brings my excruciating pain
yet
Intense tenderness,
but
…I will wait for you…
