I found a reason to hate but love you.
Though it stays silent, my mouth can't say so.
The next sunrise will be better, for it will shine purple.
the lies will lighten away and my scars will fade but
still I found a reason to hate but love you.
so cut me and leave me bleeding.
the wound will heal, so hold my hand
and watch it run, run down my wrist,
cuz I'm wasting my time with you.
I found a reason to love but hate you.
you've had time to leave me dying, let you love the other men.
but now its time to say good bye and so long, I'm leaving you
and never coming back, I'll find another and rub it in your face.
because I found a reason to love but hate you.
so cut me and leave me bleeding.
the wound will heal, so hold my hand
and watch it run, run down my wrist,
cuz I'm wasting my time with you.

very tragic, a nice title, make you wanna read it, well done and thanks for entering

I like the repeated lines in the poems and the repeat of the I found a way to hate and love you, really added emphasis on the phrase. I also felt this piece could be turned into a full song, really. 'I'm wasting my time with you' don't I know that phrase all too well at the moment.

short but sweet.the pain seeps through beautifully.well done

Wow
I like how you seem to hope for better in the first stanza && then in the 3rd you say you're leaving, that you're strong enough. I really really love the repeating parts. -
Nice poem.
