Not In Love

I hate love.

Or I think I do.

Still, I listen to songs
Written specifically for this purpose.
I suppose
I'm stewing in all the sadness
That comes with the failure of relationships.

How can I forget?

His name brings back memories.
Of how he held me.
Of how he kissed me.
Of how we kept each other warm...

I think I hate love.

I feel a tear run down to my hair
As I lay in bed with my face upturned.
Thinking of how I wish I could jam
My hand into my heart and rip out my heart.

Shred it into teeny tiny pieces

And cremate the stupid thing.

I can't forget how it feels
To be kissed
And loved
And told
It could never work.

High expectations falling to the ground like
Rain.
Like rain
In a storm.

I'm in tears.

I hate love.
