I hate it when you don't look at me
I love it when you listen
I hate the fact that we're just friends
I love the way your eyes glisten

I hate it when you're far away
I love it when you're near
I hate it when you're hard to understand
I love how you make things clear

I hate it when you don't understand me
I love it when you call
I hate the way you play this game
I love how you seem to know it all

I hate it when you make me cry
I love it when you tell me your dreams
I hate the way you drive me crazy
I love how perfect everything seems

I hate it when you listen to rumors
I love the way you stare
I hate the way you sometimes frown
I love the way you play with my hair

I hate the way you change your mind
I love the way you dress
I hate it when we argue
I love it when you flirt, then confess

I hate it when I don't get to see you
I love the way you talk
I hate it when you clam up
I love the way you walk

I hate it when you get angry
I love how you seem so strong
I hate it when you're selfish
I love how nothing seems wrong

I hate it when you use the word lonely
I love the things we share
I hate it when you're cranky
I love knowing you'll always be there

I hate it when you're silent
I love the way you read my mind
I hate it when other girls look at you
I love how easy you were to find

I love how I could go on forever
I hate having to make this end
But that's just something I have to deal with
Because right now you want to be my friend

I loved this! By the way, you got it for someone BAD  . Isn't it great the way they make you feel? Well, don't worry about him 'just wanting to be friends' because if you showed him this, I think he might just change his mind.

Welcome to Passions!
It's always hard to love someone who doesn't love you back, but you can't force anything, just be patient and watchful, and something will happen! Good poem

Wow I loved this. It left an overall good impression which tells me you are starting to get over it, although still painfully in love with him. Great poetry, welcome to passions.

This poem is really cool! I love the rhythem of it, and the way you start each line with *I love it when you...I hate it when you...* Awesome effect. You rock! Peace babe.

But it's something more than ordinary
Such a lovely day
And it's nothing more than ordinary living
That you're living

Awesome!!! You really expressed some deep emotions there.  Isn't it great how you can just so freely speak your mind with poetry?  When you were like I love, I hate it sounded to me like 2 voices inside your head (not in a bad way hehe "the voices in my head" lol) arguing over whether u love or hate this person.  Very kewl!! I like it, great work!

I loved this poem. It was so great. And so true about many people. I have felt/ am feeling this way about a person. In past experiences, things always work out, even if you arent together romantically, things always work out for the best. GOOD LUCK! KEEP WRITING!

 "Some people react physically to the magic of poetry, to the moments, that is, of authentic revelation, of the communication, the sharing, at its highest level....A good poem is a contribution to reality. The world is never the same once a good poem has been added to it. A good poem helps to change the shape and significance of the universe, helps to extend everyone's knowledge of himself and the world around him." -Dylan Thomas (1913-1953)
