poem_146_Hate_to_Love
I never understood the phrase
"Hate to love"
Until this very moment
And it brought me to tears
Such a simple phrase
Overlooked by ignorance
Only seen as another cliche
Until it's been experienced
It's when you hate
Something so much
Because the memories
Bring you to tears
And tears your heart
Open again like a stitch
But you love it
Because in that same instance
So much has been given
To you
To feel
Something so powerful
The second
Minute
Two or three
That make you feel crazy
Because your sad crying
Spontaneously becomes happy
It hurts so much
Yet feels so good
When you cry so long
Just to laugh in the end
That oxymoronic phrase
Cliched beyond others
Unappreciated till lived
When you hate to love
