I love the smell of roses
Trimmed and dead in a bouquet
I hate the dark and stormy clouds
With sounds of rain calming each beat

I love the whisper of music
Filtering through headphones, distracting but sweet
I hate the sound of my voice
While others ask to hear my laugh again

I love the views of nature
Bugs crawling over skin with every picture
I hate crawling out of bed
The day ahead one would regret if missed

I love the smell of a freshly printed book
That trees were murdered to create
I hate driving long distances
Where laughter and bonding frequents

I love the little things
Even with the big needing attention
I hate being alone with my thoughts
Despite having those to confide in
