E. and F.

Enemies and Friends

I'm lacking in one
And I have a plethora of the other
Receive love from few
And hatred from another
They breed their lies
And spew their venom
I love you I hate you
Shrieking rumors as they hack
At the ghost of confidence
Sneering as their compliments
Swipe through it's flanks
The only friend I need
Is the enemies I have
Break me down just to build me up
Suffocate me with the rope of your love
Who needs enemies
With friends like these?
I'm sorry but I can't hear your question
Over the sound of both sides pleas
