Poetry- Toxicity by Izmir Laforest

You reel me in just to spit me out.

Say you’re proud of me, then fill me with doubt.

Whether you love me or not I do not know,

Yet you’re always supportive when I’m feeling low.

I love you, I hate you,

The line is so thin.

I’m starting to realize that with you,

I can never win.

We’re so inconsistent it makes me sick.

But I’ll never leave your side.

Let me go, please.

So that I can find the real love I’ve been denied.
