I Will Always Hate You

Hate is just about as blind as love.

I will always hate you.
No. It is no fault of yours
Just my insecurities I guess,
And the way your pale skin stands out
Against those dark blue veins;
I do abhor the way your shoulders
Stand straight against the sky trying
It seems, to ask for the extra load
That the rest of us can’t or won’t support.

Your smile to me is nothing,
But a harsh reminder of the fact that you exist
Why do you do it?
Stretch the muscles of your mouth
With such an inhuman effort
Only to reveal two straight lines of
Straight teeth
Straight and white;
It does make me feel that you’ll
Chew away everything
that comes within your reach

What is it in your eyes
when you look at me?
Do you think I like you?
What I would like
is to sink my nails
Into the flesh of your cheeks
till I draw out blood,
and distort your sugary smile.

But I can’t get away from you
However much I may lament it.
You are part of my life,
And it is your existence
That makes me complete-
ly evil.
