You can never truly appreciate what's good in life until you have experienced what's bad.


I loved that when I use to look at you

You’d smiled, giggle and turn your head, flattered

Embarrassed

But now

You don’t giggle

You don’t smile

But you still turn your head

Angered


I loved that when we held hands

You gently rubbed your thumb

On my fingers

Bliss


But now

You twiddle your fingers

Anxiously waiting

For me leave the room

Annoyed


I love that when we kissed

We’d hold each other tight

Felling blessed

In love


But now

You wont even speak to me


How could you?


Love a person the way you did

Say you could be nothing without him

Take his heart

Neuter it

Then destroy it?


I hate that you treat me this way

I hate that I haven’t given up hope
But now

I hate that I’m still in love with you
