Why Do I Love You?
Emotions are complicated
I have hated you for so long
You have treated me with so much contempt
You have been poison
A toxin
Arsenic
Your bitter almond has coursed through my veins
Stopping my heart
Stopping my breath
Invading my mind
Violating my self
So why do I love you?
I hate everything about you
You treat me like the enemy
The other side of World War III
Then try to turn the tables on me
You are the instigator
The terminator
A violent force of nature
You have pulled me down
Thrown me around
Chided me
Blinded me
Done everything you could to deny me
So why do I love you?
Why do I cling to you?
Why do I still care?

the prove you are smarter than average
Do you ever wonder how your brain compares to others'? Well, if you're towering over them, you might have a cognitive edge! Research has shown that tall individuals often earn higher incomes, with hypotheses suggesting links to self-esteem, social dominance, or bias against shorter people. Interestingly, a 2009 study found that taller children tend to have higher cognitive test scores on average.
