Love To Hate Poem by Richard McClellan

Sitting alone,
just my thoughts with me,
my mind is blank,
no good thoughts I see,

abandoned n' feeling used,
love burned to hate,
now the one I can't stand,
it happened at such a fast rate,

its like gambling, the flipping of a coin,
love n hate on separate sides,
when it lands on hate,
then the love just dies,

as embers turn to ash,
the smell of smoke on the breeze,
no actions to take,
for a mind that's blank n' filled with hate,

somehow I have burned love to hate!

the candle reached its end,
the flame of love has went out,
no love left in the heart,
just the hate to let out,

like drowning in a river,
of fire smoldering hot,
no actions do I take,
when I have burned love to hate!
