The Love--Hate Song

By Malcholm Dark

I was...
Pulled down to the ground
Pound by pound
And drowned
By your love.


I hate you, I hate you, I love you!


I cannot believe that I love you
I love you so much.
Forever, I will always love you
I love you too much...
Till a blue sky turns gray
Till the ground breaks away
Till my last dying day.


I was...
Seduced and reduced by a dream
Taken and shapen in your scheme
Fitted with muzzle and chain
Nurtured and pleasured by pain
Taught the way of the clown
Formed and made with a frown
Pulled down to the ground
Piece by piece--pound by pound
And drowned
By your love.


I hate you, I hate you, I love you!
