Array ( [sid] => 30318 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Why do I Hate Thee? Let me Count the Ways... [time] => 2003-12-28 22:13:15 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Why do I Hate Thee? Let Me Count the Ways...
December 28, 2003

Chances are I'll die before you,
So here I leave my message to you.
Me plus you equals one, one mind, one love, one vine
Everyday my world is in a different hue,
And I read my cue to see you two,
And know that today you'll both be blue.
My efforts to cheer may be wrong and free,
But it will us three, and make it better for us, you'll see...
Together we will go and we will pour, get more, and soar,
And on day four, we'll floor, and head home to the core.
Alone, after that, I'll feel so alive, just like I was five,
And I'll strive to survive and thrive a new game, a new mix.
More tricks, this time six, and we'll never be the base of anothers pun,
Cause when I'm done,
Theres never gonna be a lucky seven, or a place in heaven,
For him, I promise. But for you and for me, I'll make it better,
This time around he's gonna wish he didn't ***** with what was behind door number eight,
Cause now he's gonna see the wrath of my hate.
Thank you, for making life good, times nine,
While it lasted, but it's gone, so today is mine,
And I'm gonna use it and abuse it til I see him pay my fine,
If you don't mind.
Let's take it from ten, and slowly begin.

Ten: When you left me, you scarred me of a friend, and made me mistrust men...
Nine: I acted like everything was fine, but you see now, don't you, the truth in my eye?
Eight: You caused a hate, made me appreciate, to wait, as I was just bait...
Seven: To leaven, I'll add my lies and disguise, to yours long lost in my eyes
Six: Your tricks and mimicks are sick, but I'm back, and this time it's my picks...
Five: I've found I dive, to see your hive, and I've cried tears of joy that your'e just a boy, and now my toy...
Four: Can you feel my blade, in your core, through your horror to the floor, as I ignore your pained roar?
Three: Probably thought you'd never hear from me, well see, I saw what I need, so you'll plead, on your knees, that I won't make you bleed.
Two: Getting close, what to do? The life is draining out of you, as me, and her, she stands for every other girl, we just smile down at you, and coo, as your face turns blue. And you thought you knew...
One: Almost done, isn't this fun? I've been dreaming of this moment, and now I've finally won. I'm done, and this is my gun? See it? Well...course not. Your eyes are empty now, the life is gone, there's none...
And so we see zero: As you fall below, the place where fires grow, I'll remember my goodbyes and never forget my despise, for you. Zero. Just go.

Very good. It felt like reading lines off of an enchantment of hate... I loved this. It was deeply awesome.
