All The Things I Hate

I hate this life
I hate this place
I hate this world
I hate this face

I hate the wind
I hate the rain
I hate the earth
I hate this pain

I hate the panic
I hate the attacks
I hate the skin
That keeps me intact

I hate the sky
I hate the nails
I hate this house
And all the wails

I hate the people
I hate to cry
I hate to live
But I hate to die

All the things I hate
I know are the things that care
And all these things I love
You must be aware

All these things are in my heart
All these things are pain
All these things are part of me
And are all I can attain

It’s ok to hate the world
And love it all the same
Pale love against the sky
Keep hard loves tame

And in all the time I’ve spent
I have found maybe one thing
It’s not wrong to hate
And also love and sing

As a man said, when I was low,
One time that seems so long ago
“But my pen is writing wrong
So I’ll say it in a song”
