Pain of Love II - 3. Love and Hate

Your words of love, slice through my flesh into my soul,

a surgeon’s scalpel—deadly, precise

Releasing the hatred housed there, hatred hot and burning

like magma from a volcano

It flows from me, a flood of devastation,

destroying all it touches,

leaving behind a heart as cold as ice

 

How can you speak such sweet syllables, utter such soft sentiments

when your mouth is like a serpent’s gape?

How can your touch both tantalize and torment

when your caress is as terribly tender as the talons of a bird of prey?

How can your heat ignite my senses,

sending searing bursts of fire through my soul

when all you have become to me is a tragic accident, a terrible twist of fate?
