Hate me hate me please somehow someway perhaps that would make some sense of this Horror called life in souls receding Hate me with words let them match your actions and deeds show me no pity I have no need Hate me convict me I am guilty as charged of caring believing then loving you on and on and on Hate me don the executioners hood hang me disembowel me already torn to pieces release me from this screaming life of pain which no numbness drives away Hate me Please blame me I did not lift the hand nor depravity demand as living Blame me anyway so you are insured my fault all Hate me so vehemntly spew poison with the passion you said you held for me with and the hope we finally began to build our world upon Hate me only hate me with every fiber and woven thread that they might burst to flame for my heart is already ashes Hate me for that too fot every mistake and caring only hate me with all you are I know behind the barbed wire few things are known Only hate me so I may find a reason for this dying "The most redeeming facet of life is that we have the comfort of knowing it will end. Death doth love equally." [This message has been edited by ATelamon (edited 03-23-2001).] |

Had to read this three times....to realize that if what you ask for should happen, at least then there would be a feeling, and a reason... but don't ask me to do this, for I would fail you miserably... |

I understand the emotion, I understand the need...I even understand the words this time. But this, I believe, is too much to ask of anyone or life. Black and white...rarely. Live with the shades of gray. Love ya, big brother. Kick it in. |

Ahh shades of gray the most beautiful of scenes inspiring self searching let it rain But as one reads Kirgegaard the reminder is over and over presented defined as "Either, Or" So we make our decisons set the dominoes in motion and hope the pain will fade away Thanks sunshine, and yout too Little Sis.

It would be so much easier to have the actual words out, then live in limbo. Well done! |

Hate like love, involves intense, dedicated attention. Such absolutism is rarely possible and I think most people probably prefer the murkiness of mixed emotion- it is safer and also doable. We all know how to calibrate feelings. But I can appreciate the desire for clarity and purity of emotion, even though it can be scary. Very well done. Thank you! |

Oh AT, this just struck home today like..........I can't believe it. You write of this so well, not only is it being put into the library, but I gotta print a copy just to carry with me and remind me........well done. *s* On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free. |
