Your eyes were a familiar town,
A ghost town I call home

The first time we kissed,
We tasted soil in each other's mouths,
We both smelled fire
And felt burning when our fingertips touched

We had dreams of a natural disaster –
The rainfall of ash and pumice
People screaming, temples collapsing
And we woke up remembering
What buried us

We lay in bed
My bones on your bones,
My skin against your skin
My hands shook like an earthquake
I asked you, "Did we not die like this?"
You kissed me, unafraid,
"Were we not born from this?"

In desperation
To fill this empty *****
I invented you

What is hate
Is it just like love
we think we know
but yet our feelings remain oblivious
Is hate just a stir of negative emotions
are love and hate so different
we cant live with just one you see
because in order for one to exist It has to have the other
