If “I love you”
Was a burden,
Would you still
Eagerly return it?
If “I hate you”
Was a warning
Would you still
Say it so easily?
“I mean it, really I do.”
Then why is it filled
With insincerity?
A joke,
A bluff,
It always is.
But do you
Weigh
The meaning
Of the words you spit?

With insincerity?
A joke,
A bluff,
It always is.
But do you
Weigh
