TITLE: A Hate to Love

AUTHOR: Danny Ellas

A/N: This is a poem based on the story "Unseen Dreams" by Hallie (Hallie_loves_Aragorn@hotmail.com) POV Aragorn.

Could I have turned and walked away

When you laid me down to kiss.

Afraid you'd only do this once

Scared there was nothing to miss.

What is it we're writing?

Some book called "Betrayal"?

And I'm I playing two sides

With some half-hearted portrayal?

Is it still you, friend?

Still on my aching mind?

I'd open up my heart to you

But I don't know what you'd find.

I wish you'd rape me

Take me.

Take the blame off me

But you know I'll never ask you

Keep pretending

It's meant to be.

Don't get me wrong,

I love you

But I hate my every thought

That tells me to face up to life

And not to sell the hate I bought.

These people need a leader

And not a broken boy

So hurt me, fuck me, just don't love me,

Treat me like a worthless toy.

Don't get me wrong

I love you

And I watch your every turn

So show me how to take you

Just tell me and I'll learn.

I used to feel like I had I chance

I thought I had a choice

Once I had my own free will

And I used to have a voice

All I have is one weather-beaten body

I wish there was more here to give.

But you end up with nothing.

What use is a body

That hasn't a reason to live?

Don't get me wrong

I love you

And not just for one night

Just be done and take me.

Love you?

Yeah, I might
