Love or Hate
by Daniela Garcia
I love you at the same time that I hate you.
I love you like music to my ears;
I hate you like a bloody war.
When I close my eyes I think of you;
When I open them I know you're not there for me.
You're like an ocean
The ocean in which I drown
Every time I try to swim.
I love you as if it was only you and me
Even in the largest crowd
But I hate you because you're always getting lost.
You're like a candy
I love you when you're sweet
But I hate you when you get so sour.
You're like a beautiful red glass rose
I love you when you are there to shine your light
Put my frown upside down
But I hate when you fall and shatter
I try to pick you up
But you keep on cutting me.
You are like a book
Full of stories;
Stories I would love to read
But when I open the book
The pages go white.
I'm between fire and ice
When I want to go back
The fire burns me
And if I want to go up front
The ice freezes me.
I just don't know
If I should love or hate you.
