Love/Hate Relationship

Love/Hate Relationship

A Poem by Celine Heath
"

"
Love is as very strong word,
But then again, so is Hate
"You can't have one without the other", they say, 
"Its rarely worth the wait".


3 years, 12 weeks and one guy later
I finally understand;
If you choose to let them in,
They'll have the upper hand.


A single glance was all it took - 
You had me from the start.
I knew I loved you desperately,
But you tore me apart.


You gave me flowers, hopes, and dreams
But you bruised more than a lip.
Oh, how I regret falling for
This Love/Hate relationship...

Author's Note

Celine Heath
So I don't tend to use rhyme schemes in my writing, mainly because I prefer writing freely, just as the words fall out of my mind, rather than rearranging them, but I thought id try this to see whether or not it was preferred by other people reading my writing, please let me know what you think!!

A free write for a free mind! That is something most shy of, sticking towards construction and strict writing we have forgotten of the freedom we have for our mind to create its own form of writing. Real writing. God job!

Thank you.
I really liked this. The rhyme scheme didn't seem forced in the least. I liked that as well. A very raw and honest piece. I dig it!!
