Love Is Hate Is Poem by Andrew Matthews

Love is a lovely flower that comes and leaves again and again

Hate is a silent phone call

Love is a beauty with perfect skin

Hate is a gambler who just can't win

Love is a perfectly played Hendrix lick

Hate is your lover who is permanently sick

Love is an everlasting cigarette

Hate is a stunning beauty who denies that you ever met

Love is an obscure title by Charles Bukowski

Hate is your lover who says she's offski

Love is lyrics by the lovely Alanis Morissette

Hate is the lottery winner who joined the jet-set

Love is a cigarette and a cup of coffee

Hate is someone who doesn't like me

Love is being able to make every last word rhyme

Hate is thinking of the right thing to say at the wrong time

Love is being free to scream and shout

Hate is burning your finger putting a cigarette out

Love is knowing the right time to end a poem.
