je suis triste


i love you

three words

so simple to say

yet so hard to mean

i hate you

three words

so easy to mean

yet taken to heart so harshly

i need you

three words

so lovely to hear

yet so soul bearing 

i want you

three words

so toxic if not meant

yet gracious enough to be spoken
