The Truth

A Poem by Tara Ghorm

To tell you the truth
I wish you could hate me
Then I could be alone

To tell you the truth
I like you too much
But my heart is dry as a bone

How can you love this?
I wish you could hate me
I’m better on my own

I wish I didn’t love you too
I wish I hated life
Then I could be alone

To tell you the truth
I love you too
And don’t want to be alone.
