How do I hate thee?
Let me count the ways
I hate you as passionately as I could have loved you
I hate you as one can only hate someone that they cared for deeply
Once upon a time
I hate you for almost making me into something that I'd hate more
I hate feeling like I was "the other woman" when I never touched you
I hate your kind words, your compliments and everything we had in common.
I hate the letters you wrote, the gifts you gave, the deep conversations we had
I sincerely hate that I trusted you, that I could say anything to you
I hate that I thought you heard me
I genuinely hate the way you looked at me
I hate that I let you in and I hate that now I care
I hate that familiar pain in my chest
And that there are endless ways for it to get there
I asked you if this was some game and you assured me that it wasn't
But you lied
You lied to her and you lied to me
It was nothing but a game, some sick, cruel control trip

I really hate you for going out of your way, above and beyond, to become my best friend and then taking it away in an instant

I truly hate you for turning out to be just one more asshole

I will love you forever.
