I..... Poem by Jacqueline Webb

I hate you for hating me
I love you for denying me
I can't stand you for being there
I don't want you whenever you are near
And yet we stand
In the comfort our heat
No one can see
No one can hear
I want to be
I want to be let free
I don't want you to be free with me
I care for you
But I don't need you
We are not an item
We are not a 'we'
Go away and love me strong
Because this is the way
I live my song...
