"I hate you" I scream
in my mind and in my eyes
it's not what it may seem
If I could I'd cut my ties
I would in an instant
and never look back .
You may think me flippant
you may hate this track
but if you walked in my shoes
if you knew the pain I feel
you would feel the bruise
that is never left to heal.

"I hate you" I whisper
barely there and distant
voice not getting any crisper
nothing any different
I miss the past
I miss my friend
I knew this couldn't last
and now it comes to an end.
I didn't know this was the start
of an all out war between us
we know it isn't smart
but we throw each other under the bus.

"I hate you" I scream
out loud and crying
it's not a dream
and I'm not really lying.
I hate you for what you've done
how wrong things got
when this had all begun.
My feelings can't be sold or bought
traded or dismantled
only dealt with
or incorrectly handled
since you're a word smith
you chose the latter,
so I ask you, what's the matter?
