E’ ends hate and love roya motazedian

i claw at the mirror what is this ugly thing that scowls at me through the glass?

i’m filled with You lungs reek of Your scent eyes paint Your figure Your melody never escapes my ears. Your poisonous ink painted me into a monster.

i love You

the calendar tells me today was Yesterday so why are You still hanging on my shoulders?

like my favourite cardigan? but i can’t help wanting to wear You (out). i hate you

You don’t answer my messages. have You eaten? are You well?

did You at least think of me today, too?

i hate You.

We promised to meet again You’ll keep your promise right?

i love You

the Things You gave me sit on my desk i’ll be rid of Them today i built a tower of thorns as i waited for you You’ll climb up even if your hands bleed right?

i hate You.

i wonder if You felt like this when You threw my heart away did You smile as it drowned under your touch?

but the only thing plantlike about me is my roots that firmly sit in Your soil. it kills me. if i was a plant, Your smile and water and soil would be enough to sustain me

yet i face You, my sun.

yet You dematerialized. x
