Love & Hate

I hate the way you choose someone you barely know over me who knows you to your core.
I hate the way you close me off as soon as you reveal a little bit of yourself.
I hate the way you always pick the right girls who are actually worth it.
I hate the way you dismiss me like I'm your personal booty call, and I hate the fact that I still come to you time after time you call.
I hate that I'm always there for you.

Tears

I hate that I cry for you, that I share your pain.
I hate the way I laugh at your words as if they meant the world.
I hate the way I cling onto fantasies of you and me.
I hate the way I want to look good in front of you.

Hurt


Is that what it means to stand by and be your best friend?
Because it hurts, and I don't think this is the way things should be.
But still I love you all the same.

Still


I love the way you smile at me.
I love the way you're only honest with me.
I love the way how you show that you care.
I love the way you're the light to my dark.
I love the way you free me from my chains, how you
I love the way you know when I'm lonely.
I love the way you notice.
I love the way you see me for me.

I love you. I want to be more in your eyes.
I wish you could see that.

    Loved it! I can relate so much. Not for guy, though. I mean, it's not a romantic relationship in my case.

      I'm glad that you were able to relate, no matter the gender :)

    I loved this. One of the more beautiful poems I've ever read. I loved the gradual transition. Beautiful work :)

    Seeing is believing, or so they say.

      What happened to believing without seeing?

    Unrequited love is too painful. Let it go, darling, when you can. You deserve a heart that loves you.

      I think that I'll still hold on for a little while more...

    It's like you write what is in my heart about my 'D' .... it is so much easier said then done to let the love of your life go... so sad :-(.
