Crossing The Lines

Opposite ends of emotion
Hard to define at times
Love or hate....which one?
Can you cross the lines?

To care so much that it hurts
To be hurt and learn to hate
To let yourself believe the words
Only to learn the truth too late

An emotional roller coaster ride
Down one moment and up the next
The urge to run and simply hide
Versus happiness at its best

Love or hate you want to know
The answer is plain to see
If you question which is so
You know which it has to be

I believe the lines may cross
But only one emotion is true
If you're in pain or feel loss
Then love has control of you
