Am I Insane?

Am I Insane?

By: Alexis Manley

i give
you take
i give again
you take again

i love
you hate
you thrive off of my pain
you slime ball

as my cigar ashes away
i feel my head become swolen with thoughts of hate
hating you
hating me

am i insane for loving someone so incapable of loving me back?
am i insane for each sip of coffee aqnd each puff of my cigar?
the cheapest things will kill you
and the cheapest thing right now is fake love

if you really loved me you would have changed when i asked you to
if you were ever to show up at my house
in my gravel driveway
id take the shot gun barrel to your knees

just to see you in pain
like the pain you gave me
like the hate i harvest each vacant left alone holiday
fuck valentine's day!

and most of all FUCK YOU!

    i can feel the anger, love is not changing for each other when asked though , its being a better person for love. If they are not willing to change on their own then its their loss keep up the good work
