I hate you, don't leave me, I need you, please go
I love and despise you, I'm high when I'm low
I'm lost when I reach you, you go further away
I want you to vanish, I want you to stay
I hate you, don't leave me, you're breaking my heart
We're closer than ever when we're further apart
You're easing my pain when you cause me despair
I know you feel nothing when you say that you care
I hate you, don't leave me, you've stolen my life
Your love fills my heart and cuts like a knife
Warm comfort from you, frozen inside
Smiles you create with the tears that I cried
I hate you, don't leave me, please hold my hand
I know what I want but I don't understand
Drowning in sorrow, afloat with your arms
I feel your resentment when you fool me with charms
I hate you don't leave me, you hold my control
Emptiness fills me, I'm broken yet whole
I'm in pain, I'm elated, I don't want to breathe
I hate you, don't leave me, I love you, just leave

this is real confusion
you wrote this so clever too

How many of us readers have felt this way. I imagine at one time or another we all have about something in life. Our whole life is made of conflicting thoughts.
The good and the bad choices. We do what we must to weigh the differences to make our decision. Very nice right thatmakeds the reader question things and ponder.

This was great, the conflict between what your heart feels and what you know objectively is the best for you. I like your attention to rhyme. As far as suggestions, the only thing I can think of is maybe work on not having so many lines start with "I", as this can be distracting.
Loved it! -
you are so incredibly talented! your words here describe such an amazing grasp on intense feelings and psychological turmoil. I like the theme and rhythm that you carry throughout. Keep writing poet!

LOVED IT!!!
Wow, I LOVED THIS!!! The confusion beetween heart and mind, when the mind wants to let go and the heart just hangs on... So well known...
My favorite part is this:
'Your love fills my heart and cuts like a knife
Warm comfort from you, frozen inside
Smiles you create with the tears that I cried'
Keep on penning with ink that never fade
