Mixed Emotions

By: Hilaire G. Lett

I hate the way you make me feel
Emotions: Love and deceit- all at the same time
Thinking of all your many lies
And what we can grow to be- all at the same time

I love the way you make me feel
I hate the way you lie
I enjoy the way you make me laugh
I hate it when you make me cry

Why can't you just be real with me
Just show me how you truly feel
So I can leave all this doubt behind
And know which feelings I have are real

Just show me that you're not a waste of time
Show me what you're capable of
Tell me that you like me
Or maybe the word is "love"

Make me feel the way you feel
However that may be
Let me know that the one you want
Is me and only me
