Love/Hate Relationship
Your generosity and confidence,Your narcissism and temper,
Your sensitivity and intelligence,
Your stupidity and rage.
Thoughtful, controlling, nurturing, condescending,
One hundred shades of gray.
How am I to reconcile these completely
Different strangers into the form of one person?
Which is the true self and which is the mask?
Do you even know yourself?
You are exactly what your parents made you,
And yet you are exactly who you are in spite of their attempts
To own and destroy you.
I am so proud of who you are
And I am equally disgusted by you.
This seesaw persona is driving me mad,
And only half of you cares.
