I found this in a little stash of things that have meant something to me over the years...I don't know why I felt the need to share it, but I hope you enjoy....

This is What You Do to Me

You brushed me off like you always do...
I'm a piece of dirt on your sleeve,
An obstacle in your path.
Is that all I really am?

You didn't do that a few months ago.
I'm taking the hint.
I'll make this easy for you,
and leave.

I love you.
I hate you.
I need you.
Don't want you.

I am left stranded
Like a broken car, miles from anywhere,
You're the other drivers
Who ignore me and drive away

You said you'd love me forever,
Now you're packing up and leaving.
You said I'd always be yours,
Now you're saying I'm on my own.

You're sweet,
You're sour,
You're predictable,
You're confusing.

We wanted to take it slow,
You're speeding away.
We'd live together,
I'm dying alone.

Shared words,
Broken promises,
A thousand truths...
A million lies.

You smile;
You frown;
You come running;
You turn around...

I love your everything.
I hate your anything.
I need you with me,
Don't want you around me.

Your smile,
Confusingly predictable.
Your frown,
Predictably confusing.

Don't leave me.
Go away.
Comfort me.
Let me cry.

This is what you do to me,
Love, hate, passion, disgust,
Confusion.
Confusion!

This is what you do to me,
Make me live,
Let me die.
Confusion.

I love you and I hate you.
You're sweet, but you're sour...
You let me live, yet leave me to die.
Stranded...

I'm better off without you.
I don't want to live without you.
Confused by your predictability.
Predicting your confusion.

Black versus White.
Lies versus Truth.
You versus Me.
The war...

Go away.
Don't go.
Kiss me slowly.
Leave me quickly.

Lie to me.
Tell me you love me.
Try to make me hate you,
When I really love you...

This is what you do to me.
