I love you, I loath you

Love and Loath

Love is to open sky
As loathing is to the 
Darkness of the night. 

The love inside me 
Turns into the light that
Shines, oh so bright.

The loathing inside me 
Turns everything black,
A world without light. 

Yet, I sit here thinking of
You, and somehow you 
Make me feel both.

You have brought me 
Joy and happiness, and 
Changed my eye sight. 

You went out and found
Another flower for the night.

So, your love became the 
Lies that vanished my bright 
Light. 

And from that day forth I 
Loathed you, yet my love 
For you steered my sight. 

At the end you left me broken
And now I feel like the fool who 
Was blinded by love.

I now sit here loving and loathing 
You. They are so different, yet a 
Thin thread separates them.
