Love and Hate


When love and hate collide,
mixed emotions I couldn’t help but cry
Confuses the soul I couldn’t hide
As I faced you that I already bid goodbye

Why does your picture appear all the time?
Wondering what might have been if it’s still us
As if I desire to hope that you’re still mine.
It’ll probably leave a doubt if we would last.

I shouldn’t have loved you from the start;
I have to let go of this intricate emotion
so I can halt this ache because we’re apart.
It’s bothering me. I have to move on.

I loved you and I’m free now,
for one last time, this I say, Ciao!

I am an LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) and currently studying for my RN (Registered Nurse). I love poetry and I love making my own poetry. I was born and raised in the Philippines and currently residing in New York. My poems are mostly about love and relationships but I love to experiment other categories as well. I also like music and hopefully one day I'll be able to use one of my poems and put it to music.
