I Hate You

I hate you

I know

I love you

I know

Don't go

Liz, I know

I won't be anywhere near the action

I'll be in some air-conditioned tent miles from everything

I hate you I hate you

I love you I hate you

Don't do it I need you

Forget it I know you

My God how I hate you

Don't leave me I love you

Don't say that you love me

'Cause what does it matter

You're going to leave me

So leave me, whatever

It's not like I need you

I need you; don't leave me

You know I'm not selfish but me me me

I I I need you to stay

Okay?

In my life I haven't made that many promises

Just one to them

And one to you

And you know me like no one has known me before

And so you know

What I have to do

And no matter what you say

You want me to

Let's look at this calmly

Discuss how I hate you

The ways that you've hurt me

Though really you haven't

You're clearly about to

Don't touch me – I hate you

Just leave us, whatever

We'll get on without you

I'm tough and resourceful

I'm steady and sturdy

And freaking the fuck out

I love you I hate you so screw you

You're making me crazy so go!

Wait – no!

In my life

I've always I said I don't need anyone

I like our life

And I love you

And I swore that I'd love

Without wanting or needing you

But it's too late

I need you, too

You're the reason I think this life might not be meaningless

You're my North Star

My map to grace

You're my single best decision in a life of many awful ones

My one big yes

My one embrace

With you I never feel I'm out of place

We believe the insurgents intended the RPG attack to inflict the maximum casualties in the medical facility

Your husband was working his second shift that day

His C.O. wanted you to know that the number of lives he saved on this deployment

God damn it you did it

I knew you would do it

You asshole I hate you

I totally blame you

And really, how could you?

I hate you I hate you

I hate that I hate you

I hate that I love you

I love you I –

Loved you

I loved you

I lost you

I hate you

God damn you

You asshole

You motherfucker

In my life I haven't made that many promises

Just one to him

Now to you two

That I will never let this world take me away from you

I brought you both here

I'll see you through

Whatever comes, whatever I must do

It's me and you

It's me and you

It's me and you
