I Love You Like...

I love you

Like I hate you

Like I will never get over

Everything we have been through

I love you like home

But you are the home

And now I am unwelcome 

I love you less than before

Like I just miss the presence

Not like I want things to be 

As they were before

I love you like my classmates

Often I hate them

In the end, 

I wouldn’t have it differently

I love you like a puppy

When I need comfort 

And you’re right there for me

But I hate you like a puppy

When I don’t want to 

Be responsible for your behavior

I will always love you

Like I will always hate you

And eventually, I will get over

Everything we went through
