Love and Hate

One day, I told you
I love you
Now, with the opposite word
I can’t even say
I hate you
Yet, can’t even say
I love you

It would have been easier if you were just gone
I would have blamed you
Cursed my fate
And imagine: how wonderful the days were
When you were around

Now we sit on the opposite side of a table
As if eunuch banks of a barren river
Where there is meeting and
No parting
