Description This is a playground
Tonight in this car
"Slip of the tongue" is what you call this slide
The slide that your words so carelessly slide down
Sinking into my attitude
Until my attitude decides it wants to go on the "mood swings"
I hate to love hating love
I love to hate loving hate
Loving hatred
Hating love
Eventually hate takes over
Isn’t that confusing?
It’s true what they say, that it is a slender line
I know, because I went there one time
Now I’m back
Back without the innocence of staying away from that line
There. Was that too close?
So my clean sheet of paper might have some ink
Whose doesn’t? I say as I try to justify.
Ration out my convictions
But we all ration don’t we?
It happens every time I want not to be convicted
My words go to play at this crazy playground
Where up can also be down
And these two steps forward might come with one step back
But you do it to, don’t you?

I like it a lot my only advice would be to use more imagery to describe how you feel

Ah, I find this poem very intriguing!!! I had to read it twice before I fully got it...but I know what you mean!!! Definitely something everyone struggles with. It kinda seemed to me like maybe you were addressing two different issues?? Maybe I'm wrong...I think I may see how it all fits together. When I first read it...it seemed like you started off talking about gossip...then you went into your emotions, love and hate. But nevermind, I'm dumb, I get it now (= Enough of my rambling, good job once again.
