Signed.

I chew on a lemon rind,

but it doesn’t work.

Everything I want to say to you is fucking unkind.

I love you,

but I hate you,

for being so blind.

I love you,

but I hate you,

for leaving me behind.

I love you,

but I hate you,

for hurting my pride.

I love you,

but I hate you,

I know you tried.

Signed,

–S.
