I Hate You I Love You Sonnet Poem by James McLain

I hated how you drank so much, I love that I don't need too.
I hated what you did to me, I loved how I did you.
I hated the way you did our kids, kids loved the way I treated them.
I hated how you used my meds, I love that I have never stopped.
I hated that you were vain, I love seeing, I no longer am.
I hated that I did your job, I love that I learned some thing new.
I hated that I forced you to get help, I love my daughter as a result.
I hate that you made me run for my life, I love the people I met.
I hate how you made me love you, I loved how I made you love me.
I hate that I had to do all the cooking, you loved what I cooked.
I hate looking in the mirror I might see you, I love looking at your new me.
I hated that we were the same size, I love and needed to gain weight
I hate that I still think about you, I love myself even more for it.
