Cruel Tricks

I love you because your wonderful, but I hate you for loving me too
I love you because you ask for nothing, but I hate you because you weren’t true
I love you because I’ve invested years of my life with you, but I hate you because now I feel stuck
I love you because you make me feel complete, but I hate you because of your bad luck
I love you because you’ve taught me about unconditional love, but I hate you because you’ve taken advantage of my heart
I love you because you make me feel sexy, but I hate you because of the tricks you’ve played from the start
I love you because I gave body, spirit, and soul, but I hate you because for some reason you can’t give me the same
I love you because of your greatness and the sparkle in your eye, but I hate you because for you this is simply just a game
