This is a new headband in my collection called “Won’t Be Happy ’til I Hate You” after the following poem. I pulled it from my archives, but reading it even today pulls up the memories that inspired it’s creation. I hope you enjoy!
Baby, I’m trying to save you
From breaking my heart.
It makes you happy to see me cry.
Why, oh God why?
My pain makes you strong.
Why do you keep doing me wrong?
Boy, you keep doing whatever you want to
You just don’t care. Do you?
Just trying to give you a doting love,
That most men would desire.
But you keep piercing my heart &
Dousing it with fire.
Keep this up and I’ll hate you.
I’m warning you boy.
If you keep this up,
Nothing’s coming your way but bad luck.
You keep grinding my heart in a mill.
I can’t help but love you still.
It makes you happy to see me cry.
Why, oh God why?
Honey, other men would stand in a mile-long line,
Just to be the sweat on my thigh.
Why does my heart want only you,
When you keep splitting it in two?
Look at me-
I’m broken in a million pieces &
Still you haunt all my dreams.
It’s getting clearer to me,
So very clear to me,
You won’t be happy ’til I hate you.
