Love You, Hate You


Love when you loved me

Hate how you lied

 

Love that you “loved me for me”

Hate the constant stabs of criticism

 

Love the protectiveness

Hate the parent-like controlling

 

Love they cared

Hate they were right

 

Love the ignorance

Hate the truth

 

Love that you're happy

Hate its not with me

 

Love I’m my own person now

Love I’m free of your rules

Love I can be myself

Love …  she will find it out too
